Abstract
There is provided a method of decoding a first data set obtained from a time of flight (ToF) mass analyser operating according to an encoded frequency pulsing (EFP) scheme. The method comprises generating a mock data set based on a model set of ions taking account of the EFP pattern and the flight time distribution of the ions. The model set of ions is then iteratively updated using the first data set to determine a second, decoded data set.
