A new periodogram was proposed using one‐way analysis of variance ( ANOVA ), termed ANOVA periodogram, in order to reveal a precise significant periodicity. Thirty 3‐day complex computer‐simulated time series with known periodicity (24 h) and three 2‐h data‐missing occurring periodically (23 h, 20 min) were used to compare the ANOVA periodogram with Enright’s one. In results, the ANOVA periodogram was superior to Enright’s periodogram in the accuracy of assessing the major periodicity.
