Abstract

Timing jitter sequences &Dgr;&phgr;j[n] and &Dgr;&phgr;k[n] of respective clock signals under measurement xj(t) and xk(t) are obtained, and a covariance &sgr;tj,tk=(1/N)&Sgr;i=1N&Dgr;&phgr;j[i]·&Dgr;&phgr;k[i] is obtained. In addition, root-mean-square values &sgr;tj and &sgr;tk of the respective &Dgr;&phgr;j[n] and &Dgr;&phgr;k[n] are obtained, and a cross-correlation coefficient &rgr;=&sgr;tj,tk/(&sgr;tj·&sgr;tk) between the xj(t) and xk(t) is calculated.
