4.
Calculate a threshold value using:
threshold = a • (maximum derivative) + b • (mean from step 3) +
c • (standard deviation from step 3)
The values for a, b and c are 0, 1 and 2 respectively.
5.
With the point of the maximum first derivative as the right hand point,
define a window of 10 waveform values. Incrementally move this window
toward the TDR200 until all values are less than the threshold calculated in
step 4.
6.
Calculate the average of this window of values and use for the applied
signal.
7.
Calculate the average of the last six waveform values and use for reflected
signal.
8.
(p. 16)
, to calculate
electrical conductivity.
