Generation of multidimensional random pulses for radioactivity measurements

2000

Multidimensional binary pseudo-random pulses are extremely useful for the set-up calibration and testing of radioactivity measuring equipment. A new method of generation of such signals, based on the parting operation of labeled pulse trains, is presented. The concept of a general coincidence ratio is introduced. Digital window comparators and prohibited or permitted state programmers capable of performing the parting operation and controlling the values of the coincidence ratio are proposed.
