blockContinuousMean
Calculates the empirical expectation (mean) value of its input signal
Extends from Modelica.Blocks.Icons.Block (Basic graphical layout of input/output block).
Information
This block continuously calculates the mean value of its input signal. It uses the function:
integral( u over time)
y = ----------------------
time - startTime
This can be used to determine the empirical expectation value of a random signal, such as generated by the Noise blocks.
The parameter t_eps is used to guard against division by zero (the mean value computation starts at startTime + t_eps and before that time instant y = u).
See also the Mean block for a sampled implementation.
This block is demonstrated in the examples UniformNoiseProperties, NormalNoiseProperties and WeibullNoiseProperties.
