To treat the total likelihood as the product of the individual likelihoods in each frequency bin, we must check that the covariance matrix is diagonal.
\ We will consider a signal-only analysis, discarding the noise, since the noise merely adds to the power and is uncorrelated between different frequency bins. We may write the values of the three peaks as
\
\ We wish to compute the quantity
\
\ We can do this using the expression for the raw moments,
\
\ where, for us, σ = 1/ √ 2. Aside from this, we need to know that
\
\ We then get that
\
\
\ Crucially, we get that the covariance between peaks is 0, allowing us to treat them as statistically independent and hence permitting us to express the total likelihood as the product of the individual likelihoods.
