Ee 704 - Control Systems Ii Anith Krishnan 1

1) The document discusses concepts related to random processes including expected value, autocorrelation, power spectral density, and ergodic processes. 2) Expected value is the weighted average of all possible values a random variable can take, weighted by their respective probabilities. Autocorrelation describes the similarity between observations of a random process at different times. 3) A random process is wide-sense stationary if its mean and autocorrelation do not change over time. The power spectral density is the Fourier transform of the autocorrelation function and describes the distribution of power over frequency for a random process.

Stationary Random Process
Statistics do not change with time.
The behaviour is time-invariant, even though the
process is random.
