Calculating MTIE

MTIE was also calculated by the execution of C/C++ code. The program calculates MTIE by using equation (4.10) which is

\begin{displaymath}
MTIE(n\tau_{0})=\max_{1 \leq k \leq N-n} \left(\max_{k \leq ...
 ...\min_{k \leq i \leq k+n} x(i)\right), \qquad n =1,2,\ldots,N-1.\end{displaymath}

As with TDEV, the program writes the MTIE data to file so that it may be displayed using MATLAB. The source code is detailed in appendix B.2.
