    A new method of approximating probability density functions is proposed. The method uses rational representing functions of the spectrum of an autoregressive moving average (ARMA) time series. Conditions are given under which certain ARMA approximators have essentially smaller integrated squared errors than truncated Fourier series approximators. Several examples illustrating the improved performance of ARMA, over Fourier series, approximators are considered.
