Why/When is Taguchi Method Appropriate? Tip #6 Using Orthogonal Arrays for Generating Balanced Combinations of NoIsE Factors Friday, 25th May 2001
Tip #6 Taguchi Method Using Orthogonal Arrays for Generating Balanced Combinations of NoIsE Factors • In many applications, one can identify several NoIsE factors (with 2- or 3-levels) that could be included during the OA-based experiments • 2 or 3 Noise Factors => use ‘all’ factorial combinations • more than 3 Noise Factors => • ‘all’ factorial combinations are too many • ‘balanced’ combinations using OA just the right number (between 4 to 9) e.g. L4 (3 NF with 2-levels) 4 combinations L8 (upto 7 NF with 2-levels) 8 combinations L9 (upto 4 NF with 3-levels) 9 combinations
