Let X ( t ), t ≧ 0, be a real stationary Gaussian process, and, for u > 0 and t >0, let L t ( u ) be the time spent by X ( s ), 0 ≦ s ≦ t , above the level u . Here u is taken to be a function u ( t ) of t , and L t is defined as L t ( u ( t )). It is shown that the distribution of ( L t – EL t )/(Var L t ) 1/2 converges, for t → ∞ and u ( t ) → ∞, to a standard normal distribution under various conditions relating the growth of u ( t ) to the decay of the covariance and other functions associated with it.
