Abstract
For the bilinear time series modelXt=βXt‐ket‐t+et, k > l, k = l andk<lformulae for the third‐order theoretical moments and an expression for the bispectral density function are obtained. These results can be used to distinguish between bilinear models and white noise and, in general, linear models. Furthermore, they give an indication of the type combination (k, l) in the above model. The modulus of the bispectral density function of the above bilinear time series model for different combinations of (k, l) and values ofβare computed and the properties are studied.
