AGARD Flight Test Instrumentation Series. Volume 14. The Analysis of Random Data

Abstract

This AGARDograph is the 14th of the AGARD Flight Test Instrumentation Series and discusses the analysis of random data. The availability of powerful computing facilities, both on-line and off-line, for processing experimental data means that the flight test engineer has great flexibility in choosing the dividing line between 'hard wired' and 'soft' signal conditioning equipment. Further, the techniques described in this Volume are being used increasingly to extract meaningful information in situations where more conventional test and analysis techniques are inappropriate. This Volume is not intended to be a reference document for the specialist analyst who is required to generate the software for analyzing random data. Rather it is intended to introduce the non-specialist both to the possibilities and to the fundamental limitations of those techniques which are most frequently encountered. This AGARDograph has been sponsored by the Flight Mechanics Panel of AGARD. (Author)
