$t_{\rm DM} = 8.3~{\rm
DM}~\Delta \nu_{\rm BW} / \nu^3\: \mu$s, where DM is the dispersion measure (pc cm-3), $\nu $ is the observing frequency (GHz) and $\Delta \nu_{\rm BW}$ the filterbank channel bandwidth (MHz).

Note that there is a possibility that the nature of the PBF may evolve from the well established exponential form, in the regime where  $\Delta\nu_{\rm d}$ is the easier quantity to measure. However, there is no evidence of this from the main theoretical models (e.g. Lambert & Rickett 1999, and references therein).
