Abstract :
Low minima of the envelope of narrowband noise are shown to be hyperbolic in shape. They are accompanied by large, short impulses in the instantaneous frequency of the noise. The statistics of these phenomena are described, and they are related to Rice´s formula for the rate of zero-crossings of Gaussian noise
