A version of Thêo1 variance, called ThêoBR variance (BR for "bias-removed" relative to the Allan variance), is constructed. This relative bias correction is applied over a range of the longest recommended Allan τ values for a given data run. ThêoH deviation ('H' to indicate a hybrid combination of ThêoBR and Allan deviations) is the Allan deviation in short term and switches to the ThêoBR deviation in long term. In the presence of non-integer-power-law and mixed noise types, the approach is as effective and less cumbersome than past approaches, and requires little, if any, a priori knowledge or human judgment of data being analyzed. The substantially gained properties of Thêo1 at large τ , to 50 % beyond the longest possible τ using the Allan deviation alone, can be obtained without Allan bias. Long-term frequency stability can be obtained in essentially onethird less time. For example, a two-month stability can be obtained with three months of data, rather than the four months of data that are usually required for such a point.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
