How to Calculate Time between Observations?
Time between Observations calculator uses Time between Observations = (Velocity Smoothing Parameter/(Smoothed Velocity-(n-1)th Scan Smoothed Velocity))*(Measured Position at Nth Scan-Target Predicted Position) to calculate the Time between Observations, The Time between Observations formula is defined as the total time taken between the observation in the velocity as by the prediction of the target. Time between Observations is denoted by Ts symbol.
How to calculate Time between Observations using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Time between Observations, enter Velocity Smoothing Parameter (β), Smoothed Velocity (vs), (n-1)th Scan Smoothed Velocity (vs(n-1)), Measured Position at Nth Scan (xn) & Target Predicted Position (xpn) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Time between Observations calculation can be explained with given input values -> -272 = (8/(9.3-11))*(6-74).
