Suppose that the trace in the evaluation range contains n stimulus values x
i
and n cor-
responding response values y
i
(measurement points). The statistical values are
obtained as follows:
●
"Min" and "Max" are the largest and the smallest of all response values y
i
.
●
"Pk-Pk" is the peak-to-peak value and is equal to the difference "Max"–"Min"
●
"Mean" is the arithmetic mean value of all response values:

Note:
To calculate the "Min", "Max", "Pk-Pk" and the "Std Dev" values, the analyzer
uses formatted response values y
i
(see trace formats). Consequently, the mean value
and the standard deviation of a trace depend on the selected trace format. In contrast,
the "RMS" calculation is based on linear, unformatted values. The physical unit for
unformatted wave quantities is 1 Volt. The RMS value has zero phase. The selected
trace format is applied to the unformatted RMS value, which means that the RMS
result of a trace does depend on the trace format.

Format
Min/Max/Peak-Peak, Mean/Std Dev/RMS
for complex-val-
ued traces (Smith, Polar) are calculated:
●
"ZVAB": the results are based on unformatted wave quantities (voltages)
●
"R + jX": the results are based on the impedance values R and X
●
"G + jB": the results are based on the admittance values G and B
In the two latter cases, the "RMS" value is not displayed.
