Introduction 2.1. Wrapped Discrete Circular Random Variables Circular or directional data arise in many diverse fields, such as Biology, Geology, Physics, Meteorology, and If X is a discrete random variable on the set of integers, + psychology, Medicine, Image Processing, Political Science, then reduction modulo 2π mm( ∈ ) wraps the integers Economics and Astronomy (Mardia and Jupp (2000). on to the group of mth roots of unity which is a sub group of Wrapped circular models (Girija (2010)), stereographic unit circle. circular models (Phani (2013)) and Offset circular models i.e. Φ=2ππxm( mod 2 ) (Radhika (2014)) provide a rich and very useful class of models for circular as well as l-axial data. Jacob and More precision Φ is a mapping from a set of integers G Jayakumar (2013) initiated the construction of Wrapped which is a group with respect to ‘+’ to the set of mth roots Geometric distribution. Motivated by the above of unity which is a group with respect to ‘.’ is defined as contributions, in this paper we construct a new discrete G ' 2πix 2πix circular model, named as the Wrapped Binomial model and where xG∈ , then Φ is its characteristic function is derived and also the population Φ=()xem eGm ∈ ' characteristics are studied. called wrapped discrete circular random variable. Clearly Φ is a homomorphism 2. Circular Distributions 2(πix+ y ) i.e.(1) Φ+ = m A circular distribution is a probability distribution whose ()xy e total probability is concentrated on the unit circle. Since each 2πix 2πiy point on the unit circle represents a direction, it is a way of = m m assigning probabilities to different directions or defining a e . e directional distribution. The range of a circular random variable θ measured in radians, may be taken to be = ΦΦ( xy).
