R/F SENSOR: MEASUREMENT PARAMETER

DEFINITIONS

Dose

and HVL are calculated from all recorded data.

Dose rate

is the average dose rate, calculated as dose/time.

Time

starts the first time the dose rate waveform reaches 50% of peak, and ends the last time it drops

below 50%. Intermediate values are time since start trig.
kVp

and total filtration are calculated from an average of samples above ~90 % of peak signal level.

Pulses

are counted at every start trig with more than 4 ms since last end trig.

Pulse rate

and dose per pulse are averages from the last 6 pulses.

For measurements longer than 3 s, the final readings of dose rate, kVp, HVL and total
filtration

are moving averages ending approximately 1–2 s before end trig. Intermediate readings are

moving averages.

Note!

If measurements are made simultaneously with the R/F sensor and mAs cable, any shared

parameter (time, pulses or pulse rate) will be taken from the R/F sensor.
