Abstract :
This study proposed the multi-average method to estimate the TEOAE parameters more accurately. The correlation between repeated measurements (reproducibility) was evaluated to see the performance. Results showed that the standard deviations of the correlation estimated by the proposed method were smaller than those by the typical method.
