Measuring shock acceleration with peak accelerations ranging from 200 to 5000 m s−2 is a significant concern for mechanical or electrical applications in industries. To precisely calibrate accelerometers using acceleration, we developed calibration system at the National Metrology Institute of Japan. In system, exciter generates rigid-body collisions between three metallic bars inside an air bearing. The pick-up be calibrated fixed on edge surface third bar so that moves together bar....

Zero shift caused by the low frequency response of charge amplifiers is one most significant factors in shock measurements with long duration, such as calibration accelerometers. In order to reproduce same zero amplifier, infinite impulse (IIR) filters were developed applying a second transfer function high pass characteristic part measured amplifiers. For experimental verification using IIR filter, input/output signals amplifier investigated rectangular waveforms peak voltage 2 V and pulse...
