  1. The expected value of bicoherence at any bifrequency (f1,f2) is 0 if the harmonic components are random-phase. This also holds for a Gaussian random process. However, when a finite number, N, of epochs is used in estimation, bicoherence values will be non-zero. 95% of the values will lie below b 95 2 .
