Analysis of many dynamic tasks arising in engineering applications is associated with the construction of spectral characteristics. However, the application of spectral analysis to random oscillations, which in most cases describe real processes (technical, technological, etc.), has a number of features and limitations associated, in particular, with the anconvergence of the Fourier transform. The substantiated metrological evaluation of the spectra associated with the reliability of the applied results is complicated by the absence of a rigorous mathematical model of a random process. The above remarks were solved on the basis of application of Kotelnikov's theorem at decomposition of a random process on known eigenfunctions. The obtained decomposition allowed us to obtain a number of results in the field of correlation and spectral analysis of random processes: the stability of the ACF and the relationship with the statistical characteristics of the implementation is proved, the orthogonal decomposition of the random process in the form of a continuous function is presented, which allows us to consider the evaluation and analyze the characteristics of the realizations without the use of a fast Fourier transform; the natural relationship between ACF and spectral density for a time-limited signal is shown, and the symmetric form of recording the signal spectrum is justified.
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.
