Abstract
As has been shown by de Maré, in a stationary Gaussian process the length of the successive zero-crossing intervals cannot be independent, except for the degenerate case of a pure cosine process. However, no closed-form expression of the distribution of these quantities is known at present. In this paper we present an accurate explicit approximative formula, derived by replacing the Slepian model process by its regression curve.Keywords
