Comparative Performance of Different Waveform Classes

The existence of different FAIMS waveform classes raises the issue of their relative merits. The optimum rectangular F(t) is always best (3.1.2) but is tougher to engineer than harmonic-based profiles (3.1.3), making one wonder about the magnitude of performance gain. 

With the n = 1 and 2 terms, the values of (F) and thus their ratios are a function of (3.1.2). In the region H, the relative d values provided by best harmonic-based
