Q: zero crossings and extrema of stationary Gaussian r.v.s

Filed under: Mathematics — Alex @ 2:19 am 1/7/2008

Here’s something new and exciting: let X(t) be a stationary Gaussian r.v.. Find the expected number of zero crossings in a unit interval. I’ll give you a hint: it can be expressed in terms of the second and zeroth moments of the signal’s spectrum. And I have no idea how to be about it :)

If you get that one, try to show that the expected number of extrema in a unit interval can be expressed in terms of the fourth and zeroth spectral moments.
