Abstract
The problem of uncertainty analysis in digital signal processing algorithms is discussed, proposing a method based on a 'white box' approach. A theore tical uncertainty estimation is carried out first; its results are then con firmed by both simulation and experimental tests. The characteristics of th e method are highlighted by means of a practical application to some common algorithms for measurements on periodic signals.
