Study Notes
Software Method
- High-speed microprocessors and digital computer software algorithms are used in software method.
Ensemble Averaging
- Successive sets of data are summed point by point and each point is averaged in ensemble averaging.
- The noise of one observation (set) is denoted as N1.
- The noise of n observations is equal to the square root of n multiplied by N1 (√n N1).
- The signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) for the average is equal to the square root of n multiplied by S1 divided by N1, where S1 is the signal for one observation (S/√n = S1/√n N1).
