Indicator function and complex coding for mixed fractional factorial designs

Statistics Theory 2007-06-13 v1 Statistics Theory

Abstract

In a general fractional factorial design, the nn-levels of a factor are coded by the nn-th roots of the unity. This device allows a full generalization to mixed-level designs of the theory of the polynomial indicator function which has already been introduced for two level designs by Fontana and the Authors (2000). the properties of orthogonal arrays and regular fractions are discussed.
