DESCRIPTION Primarily intended as a textbook for undergraduate courses in applied electronics and instrumenta on engineering, instrumenta on and control engineering, electrical and electronics engineering and electronics and telecommunica on engineering, this student‐friendly book provides an in‐depth coverage of transducers. Organised in 12 chapters, the book • presents a comprehensive classifica on of transducers based on common proper es such as mechanical, resis ve, induc ve, capaci ve, piezoelectric, magne c, fibre‐op c, ultrasonic and electrochemical; • discusses the general principles of each group, presen ng their applica ons in sensing physical quan es such as pressure, temperature and so on; • outlines the dis nguishing features of transducers and elaborates on modern sensors based on op cal fibres (intensity modulated, phase modulated and spectrally modulated sensors such as Bragg gra ng, Fabry–Pérot interferometer, Brillouin sca ering sensor) and sensors based on surface acous c wave; and • contains numerous solved examples and review ques ons that illustrate the applica on of theory to reinforce the concepts.
