CDF (1xEVDO)
shows the cumulative distribution function for the data in the Measurement Interval. shows the probability that the voltage of a random data sample (x) will be less than K volts, where K is a value on the x-axis.
CDF Cumulative Distribution Function: The cumulative probability that a parameter will be less than a given value X.(K) = Probability(x £ K)
The CDF is computed by integrating the (Probability Density Function).
This trace can be useful in designing an amplifier for a particular type of signal. For example, for an amplifier that saturates at 212 mV, place a marker at 212 mV to find what percentage of the time the signal is below the saturation level.
This trace will continue to accumulate data until the measurement is restarted.
