Abstract

A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for separating the components of a jitter signal. The method includes the steps of obtaining measurements of the spans of a signal, generating variation measurements for each of the spans, transforming the variation estimates from a time domain to a frequency domain, and determining the random component and the periodic component of the jitter signal.
