(A) Effect of coupling strength between interacting channels \(X_1\) and \(X_2\) on SNR Efficiency of channel \(X_3\). The plot includes the result for all 354 conditions and for graphical purpose the overlay of points has been limited by adding random horizontal and vertical jitters of 0.005 and 0.002, respectively. (B) Effect of SNR Efficiency observed in channel \(X_3\) on the novel specific indices of QPC associated with interacting channels \(X_1\) and \(X_2\). The values of \(R_\mathrm{BQPC}\) are generally larger than \(R_\mathrm{GQPC}\) at any value of the SNR Efficiency. The dashed lines correspond to trend lines computed according to Pearson’s correlation. For graphical purpose the overlay of points has been limited by adding a random horizontal and vertical jitter equal to 0.008.
