Title :
Statistics of nonstationary shot processes and the fluctuations of detected signals
Abstract :
Campbell´s theorems on the first and second order moments are extended to shot processes that are generated by Poisson processes of time-varying parameter. The covariance function of the limiting Gaussian process is derived and illustrated by a simple example.
