As noted above, periodic signals are best analysed in the frequency
domain while stochastic signals are usually more profitably analysed
in the time domain. The analysis in the time domain often involves
the comparison of two different signals while in the frequency domain
analyses usually concern only one signal. The expectation value of
the covariance function of uncorrelated signals is zero. The expected
value of the autocorrelation function (E{ACF}, Sect. )
of white noise also is zero everywhere except for 1 at zero lag. The
expected ACF of a stochastic signal of correlation length l vanishes
outside a range
about the lags. The ACF of a deterministic
function does not vanish at infinity. In particular the ACF of a
function with period P has the same value, P. Signals of
intermediate or mixed type with an ACF which has several maxima spaced
evenly by l and a correlation length
is called a
quasiperiodic oscillation. Its power is significantly above the noise
in the
range of frequencies and its correlation length
L is called the coherence length.
