Time series

We give here the expression of the rms fluctuations of a pixel output, for a time series of R successive samples (or exposures), each exposure corresponding to the average of n consecutive readouts with elementary integration time . It is assumed that the full time series is obtained over a total observation time . The fluctuations are described by a HF and a LF term, added quadratically:

where the is given for each array in the preceding sections.

The low frequency noise is given by (LW only):
