To determine the statistical response of a pulse rate meter, the Campbell's theorems are noted as usefull method. However, in these theorems, the input pulses are assumed to be the delta function. In the practical circuit, the input voltage has a rectangular wave form, then the output voltage is limited at the input pulse height.
In case of high pulse rate, the output reaches to the saturation voltage, and the output calcurated by using the Campbell's theorems is different from the experimental output.
This paper shows a new method of approach to determine the statistical response of the pulse rate meter when the input pulse rate arbitrarily and saturation of the output changes can not be negligible.
The equations obtained by this method have several features such as applicability to wide range of the input pulse rate, facility for the numerical calculation, and others.
Some examples are presented which illustrate the essential features of the response. These examples clarify the effect of the parameters of the input on the response, and also show the statistical fluctuation of the transient response at high pulse rate.
