Random signal power spectrum

I have a signal $X(t)=\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} Z_n \delta(t-n\tau)$, $Z_n$ is a random variable with equal possibility of +-1 and I know the power spectrum of this signal is $\frac {1}{\tau}$ from ...

How to tell how likely a signal is present in another one? (variance unknown)

I know this is probably a simple question, but I haven't been able to find a satisfactory answer anywhere... Say you have a time series signal of finite length N. Call it $y[n]$. It is stationary, ...

Probability distribution of windowed cross-correlation

This question is in the context of time-delay estimation. Say I have a stationary Gaussian stochastic process $g$, and I know its autocorrelation function $R_g(\tau)$. To do time-delay estimation, I'm ...

What is the distinction between ergodic and stationary?

I have trouble distinguishing between these two concepts. This is my understanding so far. A stationary process is a stochastic process whose statistical properties do not change with time. For a ...

Pink ($1/f$) pseudo-random noise generation

What are some algorithms for generating a good pseudo-random approximation to $1/f$ (pink) noise, yet suitable for implementation with low computational cost on an integer DSP?
