Statistics of a filtered telegraph signal

Equations are derived which describe the time evolution of the probability density and corresponding characteristic function of a telegraph signal which has passed through a detuned Lorentzian filter. A closed form expression for the characteristic function is obtained for the tuned case and the predicted joint statistics and correlation properties are reviewed in the context of earlier results. Low-order correlation properties for the more general detuned case are calculated. It is shown that the stationary single interval statistics can be generated by a random phasor moving in a space of fractional dimensions and that a simple transform of variable leads to distributions which are stable in this space.
