The Range Covered by a Random Process and the New Definition of MTIE

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the study of the range covered by the time deviation of a clock with respect to a reference one, in a certain observation time interval. In case of a clock affected by Gaussian white phase noise, it is possible to infer the probability law of the covered range and, in particular, the probability that the time deviation exceeds a particular threshold level. The application to telecommunication as related to the Maximum Time Interval Error (MTIE) is discussed.
