Description

The covariance function of a stationary and homogeneous random field, represented by an analytic signal, is related to its wave-number spectrum moments. By using a pair of fixed probes with an appropriately small separation, one can estimate the mean wave number and the wave-number spectral spread. This method may be useful for the experimental study of fluctuation phenomena in plasmas, fluids, etc
