Allan Variance - Time and Frequency Filter Properties

Time and Frequency Filter Properties

In analysing the properties of Allan variance and friends, it has proven useful to consider the filter properties on the normalize frequency. Starting with the definition for Allan variance for

where

Replacing the time series of with the Fourier transformed variant the Allan variance can be expressed in the frequency domain as

Thus the transfer function for Allan variance is

Famous quotes containing the words time, frequency and/or properties:

    “To Time it never seems that he is brave
    To set himself against the peaks of snow
    To lay them level with the running wave,
    Nor is he overjoyed when they lie low,
    But only grave, contemplative and grave.”

    “A drop of water has the properties of the sea, but cannot exhibit a storm. There is beauty of a concert, as well as of a flute; strength of a host, as well as of a hero.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
