A study of the measurement of noise power

Author

Larry Smith Heflin

Abstract

"In order to compute a power signal-to-noise ratio in the numerical simulation of a communication system, it is necessary to measure the power of the noise present. The required integration can be approximated by many numerical techniques. Five numerical integration methods are available in the user-oriented System/360 Continuous System Modeling Program. Measurements of the power of an additive Gaussian noise waveform are performed, and an analysis of the accuracy of the measurement compared to theoretical values is presented"--Abstract, page ii.
