Hi everyone,

Novice question, but does the 1-sigma, 2-sigma, 3-sigma (68-95-99) rule
apply to Allan and modified deviations? That is, can I say that that if my
MDEV is 1e-11 for 1s, 99% of samples fall within 3 MDEVs? I know that the
standard variance is the same as the ADEV for white FM, but are the
coloured components an issue in doing this?

Simon
