Detection capability of residual control chart for stationary process data

In recent years, methods for dealing with autocorrelated data in the statistical process control environment have been proposed. A primary method is based on modeling the process data and applying control charts to the residuals. However, the residual charts do not have the same properties as the traditional charts. In the literature, there has been no systematic study on the detection capability of the residual chart for the stationary processes. The article develops a measure of the detection capability of the residual chart for the general stationary processes. Conditions under which the residual chart reduces or increases the detection capability are given. The relationships between the detection capability and the average run length of the residual chart are also established.
