Let {xt} (t = 0, ±1, ±2 …) be a stationary non-deterministic time series with E(x2t) < ∞, E(xt) = 0, and let its spectrum be continuous (strictly absolutely continuous) so that the spectral distribution function is the spectral density function. It is well known that {xt} then has a unique one-sided movingaverage representation where .
