Abstract
The influence of a streak tube system on the noise properties of the signal is analyzed. The streak system is modeled as a cascade of stochastic amplifiers and a system transfer function for the signal statistics developed in terms of the Z transform of each stage. The output signal variance is calculated from the model and compared with experimental data.
