B3 - MWD Defined Error Magnitudes – Revision 3 The table below defines all MWD error magnitudes at revision 3. The revision 4 changes introduce look up tables for the reference magnitude field terms DEC-G and DBH-G. Some models may also include DEC-R and DBH-R to take into account random fluctuations in the reference field. These are not explicitly includes in the standard model.
