The next result for harmonizable almost CS processes, which follows immediately from
the CL spectral representation in Result 9.2 , connects the cyclic PSD and C-PSD to the
second-order properties of the increments of the spectral process
ξ

Result 10.1. The cyclic PSD P xx (

ξ ( f
P xx (

E [d

and the cyclic C-PSD P xx

Moreover, the spectral correlation S xx (
ν,
f ) and the complementary spectral corre-
lation S xx (
ν,
δ
f ), defined in Result 9.2 , contain the cyclic PSD and C-PSD on
-ridges

On the stationary manifold
ν =
0, the cyclic PSD is the usual PSD, i.e., P xx (0
,
f )
=
= P xx ( f ). It is clear from
the bounds in Result 9.3 that it is not possible for the spectral correlation S xx (
P xx ( f ), and the cyclic C-PSD the usual C-PSD, i.e., P xx (0
,
f )
ν,
f )to
have only
0. CS processes must always have a WSS component, i.e.,
they must have a PSD P xx ( f )
δ
-ridges for
ν =
0. However, it is possible that a process has cyclic PSD
0 but cyclic C-PSD P xx
P xx (
ν,
f )
0 for all
ν =
ν n ,
f )
0forsome ˜
ν n =
0.
Example 10.1. Let u ( t ) be a real WSS random process with PSD P uu ( f ). The complex-
modulated process x ( t )
u ( t )e j2 π f 0 t
=
has PSD P xx ( f )
=
P uu ( f
f 0 ) and cyclic PSD
0. However, x ( t ) is CS rather than WSS because the cyclic
C-PSD is nonzero outside the stationary manifold for
P xx (
ν,
f )
0 for all
ν =
2 f 0 : P xx (2 f 0 ,
ν =
f )
=
P uu ( f
f 0 ).
Unfortunately, there is not universal agreement on the nomenclature for CS processes.
It is also quite common to call the cyclic PSD P xx (
ν n ,
f ) the “spectral correlation,” a
term that we use for S xx (
f ). In the CS literature, one can often find the statement
“only (almost) CS processes can exhibit spectral correlation.” This can thus be translated
as “only (almost) CS processes can have P xx (
ν,
ν n ,
f )
0for
ν n =
0,” which means that
S xx (
ν,
f ) has
δ
-ridges outside the stationary manifold
ν =
0. However, there also exist
processes whose S xx (
ν,
f )have
δ
-ridges that are curves (not necessarily straight lines)
in the (
f )-plane. These processes have been termed “generalized almost CS” and
were first investigated by Izzo and Napolitano (1998 ).

Cyclic spectral coherence
The cyclic spectral coherence quantifies how much the frequency-shifted spectral pro-

ξ

ξ
