Abstract
Due to the increasingly complex nature of systems, there are benefits in expanding the IEEE 1451.x Transducer Electronics Data Sheet (TEDS) standards to include the physical structures included in these systems. In this paper, we present a format and methodology for Structural Electronics Data Sheets (SEDS) to accurately describe sensor housings, generic enclosures, test chassis, and instrumentation fixtures. SEDS provides the additional functionality to complement systems, such as automatic calibration and compensation of environmental factors that influence the system's physical aspects. We propose the standard's starting point for both SEDS contained on memory as well as a virtual SEDS, accessible from a source external to the structure.
