Abstract :
A routine procedure is presented to generate random number series with specified power spectral density and composite Gaussian probability distribution functions. This can be used to simulate airplane sensor outputs in the synthesis and evaluation of failure detection schemes for redundant sensor sets. An example is given comparing some statistics of simulated sensor outputs to their observed counterparts.
