Under the intended assumption that the two white-noise sequences are mutually uncorrelated at every pair of times, and are uncorrelated. Their sum is therefore weakly stationary with
Strictly, the printed condition only at equal times is insufficient. For example, is itself white noise and is contemporaneously uncorrelated with , but the cross-covariance contribution can depend on . The displayed answer therefore uses the standard intended cross-series white-noise assumption for all .
