The initial portion of the paper discusses the more conventional method of obtaining a vehicle transfer function where phase and magnitude are determined by dividing the cross spectral density of the input/output by the power spectral density (PSD) of the input. The authors needed a more descriptive analysis (over PSD) and developed a new signal description called Amplitude Frequency Distribution (AFD); a discrete joint probability of amplitude and frequency with the advantage of retaining amplitude distribution as well as frequency distribution. A better understanding was obtained, and transfer matrix functions were developed using AFD.

Models for the distribution of the wall-pressure under a turbulent boundary layer often estimate the coherence of the cross-spectral density in terms of a product of two coherence functions. One such function describes the coherence as a function of separation distance in the mean-flow direction, the other function describes the coherence in the cross-stream direction. Analysis of data from a large-eddy simulation of a turbulent boundary layer reveals that this approximation dramatically underpredicts the coherence for separation directions that are neither aligned with nor perpendicular to the mean-flow direction. These models fail even when the coherence functions in the directions parallel and perpendicular to the mean flow are known exactly. A new approach for combining the parallel and perpendicular coherence functions is presented. The new approach results in vastly improved approximations for the coherence.
