This paper presents a novel error model for TiRe-LII signals and illustrates how the can be used to diagnose detection system, quantify uncertainties in TiRe-LII, characterize fluctuations measured process. Noise single measurement shot obeys Poisson–Gaussian noise model. Variation aerosol results shot-to-shot signals. These induce quadratic relationship between mean variance of set We show this elucidate aspects system fundamental properties aerosol, by comparing four sets experimental data.
