Compute sample rate statistics from a vector of sampling times.

Syntax

Mean, Std = SampleRate(Time, Scale)

Arguments

Name

Description

Time

A vector of real data containing sampling times.

Scale

(optional)

A scale factor used as a divisor for the time values. (Default 1.0)

Outputs

Name

Description

Mean

The mean of the scaled time interval reciprocals, which is a measure of average sampling frequency.

Std

The standard deviation of the scaled time interval reciprocals.

Example

Find the statistics for the time vector [0, 1, 1.8, 2.8, 4, ]

Syntax

mean, std = SampleRate([0,1,1.8,2.8,4], 1000)

Results

mean = 1020.8

std = 148.8
