Examples: Cochlear Implant Intro
• A surgically implanted electronic device that provides a sense of sound to a person who is profoundly deaf
• The quality of sound is different from natural hearing, with less sound information
• Each sensory fiber of the cochlear nerve handles a specific frequency (electively sensitive to a very narrow
frequency band) stimulate all fibers

energy to another form (usually electric). This signal is then processed and
displayed so that humans can perceive the information. Elements and
connections shown by dashed lines are optional for some applications.

Measurand (quantity the system measures): Physical quantity CH-1

• Impedance
• Temperature
• Chemical Concentration

•Signal Filtering (electric, mechanical, magnetic)
• At the input, output, inside the device (many designers use non-electric at input)
•Opposing Inputs (additional interfering inputs to cancel undesired)

Methods for inference CH-1
• Sensitivity of a test:
Probability of its yielding positive results in patients who actually
have the disease.
• Specificity of a test:
Probability of its yielding negative results in patients who do not have
the disease
• Prior Probability:
the prevalence of the condition prior to the test.
32
Characteristics of Instrument Performance CH-1
• Static Characteristics:
describe the performance for dc or very low frequency input.
• Dynamic Characteristics:
describe the performance for ac and high frequency input.

• Statistical Sensitivity:
Static calibration = hold all inputs constant except one incrementally increase
that input
The ratio of the incremental output quantity to the incremental input quantity,
Gd.
