Abstract
The existing methods of estimating the spectrum of a stationary time series are surveyed from the point of view of the user of spectral techniques, and the role of the spectral bandwidth in the design of estimates is emphasised. A discussion on the construction of “optimum” estimates is included, and a note is added on the effect of transients on estimates obtained by means of filters.

Heteroskedasticity and Autocorrelation Consistent Covariance Matrix Estimation

Donald W.K. Andrews
- 01 May 1991 - 
TL;DR: Using these results, data-dependent automatic bandwidth/lag truncation parameters are introduced and asymptotically optimal kernel/weighting scheme and bandwidth/agreement parameters are obtained.

Non-Parametric Function Fitting

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the problem of fitting a general functional relationship between two variables and require only that the function to be fitted is smooth, and do not assume that it has a known mathematical form involving only a finite number of unknown parameters.

Power spectral analysis of non-stationary random processes

TL;DR: In this article, the problem of power spectral analysis for non-stationary processes is discussed from the point of view of physical and engineering applications, with emphasis on defining a nonstationary spectrum whose physical interpretation is similar to that of a stationary spectrum.

Consistent testing for serial correlation of unknown form

Yongmiao Hong
- 01 Jul 1996 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed three classes of consistent one-sided tests for serial correlation of unknown form for the residual from a linear dynamic regression model that includes both lagged dependent variables and exogenous variables.

The Measurement Of Power Spectra: From The Point Of View Of Communications Engineering

TL;DR: This account attempts to provide and relate the necessary ideas and techniques in reasonable detail to develop the insight necessary to plan both the acquisition of adequate data and sound procedures for its reduction to meaningful estimates.

Statistical analysis of stationary time series

TL;DR: In this article, the spectrum is estimated by using a regression spectrum and the regression spectrum is then used to estimate the spectral density of a time series with respect to the spectrum of the time series.

Smoothing Periodograms from Time-Series with Continuous Spectra

TL;DR: In this paper, the smoothing of periodograms obtained from autoregressive or other time-series with continuous spectra is equivalent to considering the first few sample autocorrelations.
