Let us consider the measurement process of the diameter of a bearing ring as an example of a measurement that has a definition area of one interval. The measurement of the radius of the hole or the outer diameter (done with sufficiently accurate instruments) relative to the calculated center of the bearing ring gives the dependence of the radius to the point on the circumference surface of the hole or the outer diameter in the form of a realization of a random process that can be described by a random function like follows:
