A model for frequency domain experiments

ABSTRACT

We present a meta-model which is useful for understanding simulation frequency domain experiments. This model consists of polynomial gain followed by a linear filter with additive noise. The assumptions for performing frequency domain experiments are thus made explicit. We demonstrate how the model leads to a straightforward mechanism for factor screening via statistical hypothesis testing.
