17.2. Expected Values
To characterise randoni signals deterininistically, we use statzstzcal averages
a,lso called just averages. They c m be classificd into characteristics of random
processes which hold for a. corriplet,c: ensemble of random signals (expected value),
and tzme-averages, which are found by averagirig one sample function along the
tinie-axis. In the next section we will deal wit,h expected values and time-avera.ges.

17.2.1 Expected Value and Ensemble Mean
Several different sarnplc functions of a process arc reprcseiited in Figure 17.1. M'e
can imagine that they are noise signals. that are measnred at the same time on
various amplifiers of the same modcl. As expected value (also ensemblr mean) we
define the nieaxi value that is trt)tained at thc same time from all sample functions
of the same process:
