R: Compute ARLs of EWMA control charts under drift

xDewma.arl {spc}

R Documentation

Compute ARLs of EWMA control charts under drift

Description

Computation of the (zero-state and other) Average Run Length (ARL) under drift for different types of EWMA control charts monitoring normal mean.

Usage

xDewma.arl(l, c, delta, zr = 0, hs = 0, sided = "one", limits = "fix",
    mode = "Gan", m = NULL, q = 1, r = 40, with0 = FALSE)

Arguments

`l`	smoothing parameter lambda of the EWMA control chart.
`c`	critical value (similar to alarm limit) of the EWMA control chart.
`delta`	true drift parameter.
`zr`	reflection border for the one-sided chart.
`hs`	so-called headstart (enables fast initial response).
`sided`	distinguish between one- and two-sided EWMA control chart by choosing `"one"` and `"two"`, respectively.
`limits`	distinguishes between different control limits behavior.
`mode`	decide whether Gan's or Knoth's approach is used. Use `"Gan"` and `"Knoth"`, respectively.
`m`	parameter used if `mode="Gan"`. `m` is design parameter of Gan's approach. If `m=NULL`, then `m` will increased until the resulting ARL does not change anymore.
`q`	change point position. For `q=1` and `\mu=\mu_0` and `\mu=\mu_1`, the usual zero-state ARLs for the in-control and out-of-control case, respectively, are calculated. For `q>1` and `\mu!=0` conditional delays, that is, `E_q(L-q+1\|L\geq)`, will be determined. Note that mu0=0 is implicitely fixed. Deploy large `q` to mimic steady-state. It works only for `mode="Knoth"`.
`r`	number of quadrature nodes, dimension of the resulting linear equation system is equal to `r+1` (one-sided) or `r` (two-sided).
`with0`	defines whether the first observation used for the RL calculation follows already 1delta or still 0delta. With `q` additional flexibility is given.

Details

Based on Gan (1991) or Knoth (2003), the ARL is calculated for EWMA control charts under drift. In case of Gan's framework, the usual ARL function with mu=m*delta is determined and recursively via m-1, m-2, ... 1 (or 0) the drift ARL determined. The framework of Knoth allows to calculate ARLs for varying parameters, such as control limits and distributional parameters. For details see the cited papers.

Value

Returns a single value which resembles the ARL.
