Abstract :
In the paper [1] by the late M. J. Levin, maximum likelihood estimates and limits on their variances are derived for the parameters of the power spectrum of a zero-mean stationary Gaussian process. In this note we rederive the variances of these estimates in a somewhat different manner and give numerical results for power spectra with a Gaussian shape.
