Introduction Random process can be classified as strictly stationary or wide-sense stationary; Definition: A random process x(t) is said to be stationary to the order n if, for any tu, t2,-., fx(x(1),x(2),…,x(tN)=fx(x(t1+o),x(t2+t0),…,x(tN+to)(6-3) Where to si any arbitrary real constant. Furthermore, the process is said to be strictly stationary if it is stationary to the order n-infinite Definition: a random process is said to be wide-sense stationary if 1 x(t)=constantan (6-15a) 2Rx(1,t2)=R()(6-15b) Whereτ=t2-t1

Introduction Definition: A random process is said to be ergodic if all e time averages of any sample function are equal to the corresponding ensemble averages(expectations) Note: if a process is ergodic, all time and ensemble averages are interchangeable. Because time average cannot be a function of time, the ergodic process must be stationary, otherwise the ensemble averages would be a function of time. But not all stationary processes are ergodic. xdc([x([x(t)=mx (x(l)=lim F2 [x(ODt (6-6b) x(O)=x/(x)dx=m2(6-6c) 5 =V<x((>=o+m<(6-7)
