Abstract :
This paper describes a test suite to check the accuracy of frequency stability analysis software. It contains the values of several common statistics and frequency stability measures for two data sets, a small one suitable for manual entry, and a larger one produced by a portable pseudo-random number generator. The paper also discusses related issues such as data gaps and outliers, phase-frequency conversions, drift removal, numerical precision, plotting, and simulation
