The distribution density of the level-crossing interval lengths is experimentally studied for a Gaussian random process having Gaussian power spectrum density. The multi-peak property of the density does not appear for a Gaussian-lowpass spectrum, although it does for a Gaussian-bandpass spectrum. This situation is different from the cases of Butterworth spectra, in which the multi-peak property always appears both for lowpass and bandpass processes. In addition to the disappearance of the multi-peak property, the result of the fluctuation of the number of the crossings leads to a conclusion that a Gaussian process having Gaussian-lowpass spectrum is highly random.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
