Estimating the Uncertainty in the Frequency Domain Characterization of Digitizing Waveform Recorders

Abstract

New propagation formulas for the uncertainty evaluation for the characterization of digitizing waveform recorders are proposed in this paper. The frequency domain figures of merit, as defined in IEEE Std. 1057, have been considered to present useful addenda to the standard. The proposed formulas have been validated on simulated and actual signals.
