speed2sigmarate: Brownian motion sigma from average speed and time

Description Usage Arguments

View source: R/sigma_speed.r

Description

Calculates the Brownian motion with movement rate paramter from the average speed E(displacement/time) of a particle doing Brownian motion over a time period lag. Uses the fact that the expected value of a Chi random variable is sqrt(2)/gamma(0.5). NB: Assumes that speed is in km/sec and returns Brownian motion rate paramter in m/sec.
