Published

Author(s)

David A. Howe, Trudi K. Peppler

Abstract

We introduce a statistic that can be used for a particularly difficult measurement prob-lem, namely, determining frequency stability for fre-quency standards and oscillators for averaging times longer than those the traditional Allan deviation can estimate.
