  • Abstract
    Forward equations are derived for the (N + 1) - dimensional Markov process generated when a Markov step signal {s(t)} is the input to an N^{th} -order system of the form dX/dt = U(X; s) . As examples, the joint probability densities of input and output are found for a symmetric three-level signal smoothed by an RC low-pass filter, and partial results are obtained for a doubly integrated Rice telegraph signal.
