Timing Offset and Timing Stability for a Dual-Clock Channel Sounder

Metadata Updated: July 29, 2022

This project is anticipated to generate Working Data, Derived Data, and Published Results. Working Data will comprise raw measurement information from channel sounder instruments or oscilloscopes. Our channel sounder records data in National Instruments proprietary binary (.tdms) format. Oscilloscope measurements will be recorded as ASCII spreadsheet (.csv) formats. Also among working data will be human-readable files containing experimental configurations and conditions for the collection of channel sounding data. These data are stored as spreadsheet (.xlsx) files. Working Data will be processed into Derived Data using a set of Matlab scripts (hereafter "data processing codes"), which apply timing and statistical calculations to the Working Data. These Derived Data will be saved in Matlab's proprietary storage format (.mat) files. Each file will contain data structures which group experimental conditions and results together. Published Results may comprise charts or tables, which will demonstrate associations between derived results and experimental configurations or environmental conditions. The data contained in these charts or tables will comprise data from the Derived Data (.mat) files, as well as calculated statistical information such as confidence intervals. A set of Matlab scripts (hereafter "plotting codes") allows for selection of specific experiments from among the Derived Data, and for representation of these results in various plots. Any published chart may be reproduced provided three sets of information: (1) the Derived Data (.mat) file, (2) the Matlab plotting codes, and (3) a series of commands to the Matlab plotting codes to select the experimental data to be plotted. Special data requirements: These data may require appropriate software to access. National Instruments (.tdms) data files require software from National Instruments, or a third-party converter, to be viewable. Matlab (.mat) files may require Matlab to access contained data.
