# SpectralModel¶

class SpectralModel(*args)

Spectral density model.

Notes

We consider a multivariate stochastic process of dimension , where is an event, is a domain of , is a multivariate index and .

We note the random variable at index defined by and a realization of the process , for a given defined by .

If the process is a second order process, zero-mean and weakly stationary, we define its bilateral spectral density function with:

• is the set of d-dimensional positive hermitian matrices

Using the stationary covariance function with and the Fourier transform, the spectral density writes:

A SpectralModel object can be created only through its derived classes: CauchyModel

__init__(*args)
computeStandardRepresentative(frequency)

Compute the standard representant of the spectral density function.

Parameters: tau : float Frequency value. rho : Complex Standard representant factor of the spectral density function.

Notes

According to definitions in CovarianceModel, as the spectral density function is the Fourier transform of the stationary covariance function and using the expression of the last one, the spectral density function writes as a matrix-complex product where the matrix is the constant spatial covariance structure and the complex represents the standard representative:

Thus,

where is a covariance matrix that explains the covariance structure and

draw(*args)

Draw a specific component of the spectral density function.

Parameters: rowIndex : int i-th row component to draw. Default value is 0 columnIndex : int j-th column component to draw . Default value is 0 module : bool Tells if module has to be drawn(True) or if it is the argument to be drawn (False). Default value is True. graph : Graph Graphic of the specified component

Notes

The method plots a specific component of the spectral density function over a frequency grid. Thus, this last one should be specified thanks to the setFrequencyGrid method.
