Function describing the standard deviation of the measurement error in dependence of the measured value \(y\):

$$\sigma = \sqrt{ \sigma_{low}^2 + y^2 * {rsd}_{high}^2}$$

sigma_rl(y, sigma_low, rsd_high)

Arguments

y

The magnitude of the observed value

sigma_low

The asymptotic minimum of the standard deviation for low observed values

rsd_high

The coefficient describing the increase of the standard deviation with the magnitude of the observed value

Value

The standard deviation of the response variable.
