  • Abstract
    A new method for evaluating the first passage time using a Markov chain for the description of the observed process is introduced. The Markov chain is transformed in such a way that it becomes stationary and ergodic, making possible the evaluation of the necessary steady state probabilities. The method is illustrated with an example concerning synchronisation.
