By changing the variable κ = n - k , the cardinal of the set {(n, k) | κ = n - k and
| n | N and | k | N } is 2 N + 1 - | κ |:

Under the hypothesis [5.10], the second term mentioned above disappears, and
we obtain the formula [5.12].
These considerations can be taken up succinctly for continuous time signals. A
random discrete time signal x ( t ), t is said to be stationary in the wide sense if its
average m x and its autocorrelation function ()

For a characterization x ( t ), t of a random signal x ( t ), the time average x ( t )
