Abstract
The Total variance approach has been developed for in-creasing the confidence of the estimation of the classical Allan variance (AVAR), particularly for large integration time values. This method is based on a procedure of extension of the original data sequence called the mirror- reflection which increases the equivalent degrees of freedom of each Allan variance estimate. Recently, we applied this approach to the Modified Allan variance (MVAR) and proved that, in this case, an-other procedure of extension of the data sequence should be used: the reflection- only extension.
