A New Approach for testing Periodicity

• This paper describes testing for periodicity in the presence of FD processes. Wepropose two approaches for testing the periodicity based on Fisher’s test. The firstone is performed using the periodogram which has been divided into different parts.The second one is based on the discrete wavelet transform. Properties of the tests areillustrated by means of Monte Carlo simulations.
