Abstract
We calculate the frequency-dependent variance of the log spectral ratio for correlated time series. This is used to produce a weighted least-squares approach to attenuation estimation, with weights calculated from estimated coherence. Applications to synthetic and real data illustrate that, for correlated series, the method improves significantly on traditional unweighted least-squares attenuation estimates
