Abstract

The necessity of extending circular methods to time series data was recognized in early papers by Wehrly and Johnson (Biometrika 66:255–256, 1980 [57]), Breckling (Springer, Berlin, 1989 [8]), and Fisher and Lee (J R Stat Soc Ser B (Methodological) 56(2) 327–339, 1994 [17]), among others. Most methods for circular time series assume short-range dependence. In this paper, we review some recent results on circular time series with long-range dependence. In contrast to weak dependence, circular autocorrelations are nonsummable. This has major implications for statistical inference. Extensions to nonstationary processes are also discussed.
