Thirty fetuses were observed for 24 hours and one fetus was observed for 20 hours during the last 10 weeks of gestation. Observations were made of the amount of gross fetal body movement in each successive 5 minute observation epoch, thus resulting in 30 time series of 288 observations and one time series of 240 observations. Spectral analysis of these time series demonstrated the presence of significant power in the frequency range of 0.002 to 0.0175 cpm. Application of Box-Jenkins techniques to the time series resulted in the choice of a first-order auto-regression model to fit the data. It was concluded that the incidence of episodes of gross fetal body movements were non-random and were, in fact, pseudoperiodic.

A new time series model for exponential variables having first-order autoregressive structure is presented. Unlike the recently studied standard autoregressive model in exponential variables (ear(1)), runs of constantly scaled values are avoidable, and the two parameter structure allows some adjustment of directional effects in sample path behaviour. The model is further developed by the use of cross-coupling and antithetic ideas to allow negative dependency. Joint distributions and autocorrelations are investigated. A transformed version of the model has a uniform marginal distribution and its correlation and regression structures are also obtained. Estimation aspects of the models are briefly considered.

We determine the limiting behavior of near-integrated first-order random coefficient autoregressive RCA(1) time series. It is shown that the asymptotics of the finite-dimensional distributions crucially depends on how the critical value 1 is approached, which determines whether the process is near-stationary, has a unit root, or is mildly explosive. %In a second part, we derive the limit distribution of the serial correlation coefficient in the near stationary and the mildly explosive settings under very general conditions on the parameters. The results obtained are in accordance with those available for first-order autoregressive time series and can hence serve as an addition to existing literature in the area.
