Abstract:
The determination of the spectral form of the oscillator
signal may be considered in certain cases as the final goal of
investigation of influence of random forces on an oscillator. The
existence of a continuous part of the spectrum, even when it
contains a quasi-monochromatic line, may restrict, e.g.,
the detection of small signals located close to the oscillator frequency.
The necessity of a relatively exact knowledge of the spectrum
is obvious in this case.
On the other hand, in a number of physical tasks the mechanism of
broadening of the spectral line is considered on the basis of
a random frequency modulation.
Therefore, the determination of the spectral form of a
signal with fluctuations in both amplitude and frequency
is of independent importance.
A unified method for finding the shape and the
linewidth of the signal, in general having correlated amplitude
and frequency fluctuations, will be considered. The analysis is
performed both for stationary and nonstationary fluctuations in
amplitude and frequency. The frequency
fluctuations will be considered in detail and the influence of
correlated amplitude and frequency fluctuations on the form of
spectral line will be described.
