Appendix 1

PC Simulations of Gaussian and Rayleigh Random Processes

Tables A1.1 and A1.2 present the values calculated on a PC for the first approximations of the distribution of time intervals (image) between successive upward or downward crossings of zero level by centered Gaussian random processes with an arbitrarily chosen image. The direction of crossings (e.g., upward) is determined by the sign of the first derivative denoted as image.
