| Jul 29, 2016 at 12:28 | comment | added | Sanchises | @Eoin I agree - but I've seen otherwise quite often indeed. For example, MATLAB's Simulink invariably calls it 'sample time'. Hence my remark 'Don't be surprised', since it may very well be surprising to see such inconsistent naming conventions. | |
| Jul 29, 2016 at 12:11 | comment | added | Gremlin | @sanchises, for me this is a different quantity. For instance, one may measure the quantity for 10ms, repeated every 1s. In this case the sampling time is 10ms, the sampling period 1s. | |
