Average fidelity of the (m + 1)-stage noise circuit. In this example, we assume d = 2, n = 1, and t = 6 since the noise model is unital. The blue line is the curve fitting 1.054 × 0.9525m. The green dotted line is the estimation of average fidelity in the case of gate-independent and weakly time-dependent noise with the lower bound on the average fidelity impact factor of the unitary error.
