avar_mo_cpp: Compute Maximal-Overlap Allan Variance using Means

In SMAC-Group/avar: Allan Variance

Compute Maximal-Overlap Allan Variance using Means

Description

Computation of Maximal-Overlap Allan Variance

Usage

avar_mo_cpp(x)

Arguments

x	A vector with dimensions N x 1.

Details

Given N equally spaced samples with averaging time tau = n*tau_0, where n is an integer such that 1<= n <= N/2. Therefore, n is able to be selected from {n|n< floor(log2(N))} Then, M = N - 2n samples exist. The Maximal-overlap estimator is given by: \frac{1}{{2≤ft( {N - 2k + 1} \right)}}∑\limits_{t = 2k}^N {{{≤ft[ {{{\bar Y}_t}≤ft( k \right) - {{\bar Y}_{t - k}}≤ft( k \right)} \right]}^2}}

where {{\bar y}_t}≤ft( τ \right) = \frac{1}{τ }∑\limits_{i = 0}^{τ - 1} {{{\bar y}_{t - i}}} .

Value

av A list that contains:

• "clusters"The size of the cluster

• "allan"The Allan variance

• "errors"The error associated with the variance estimation.

Examples

set.seed(999)
N = 100000
white.noise = rnorm(N, 0, 2)
random.walk = cumsum(0.1*rnorm(N, 0, 2))
combined.ts = white.noise+random.walk
av_mat = avar_mo_cpp(combined.ts)
