Abstract
In measuring the distribution of a nominally Gaussian beam, it is generally necessary to sample the beam at a number of discrete positions. In the real world, these samples will be somewhat noisy. We present the results of simulations, showing the effects of noise in signal amplitude and noise in sample, position on the calculated beam as a function of sample spacing. This has implications for the wire spacing of multiwire profile monitors and for the sampling rate of flying wires and wall current monitors
