Randomly phase-modulated cosines are a source of examples for illustrating the topics of variance, autocorrelation, conditional probability and filtering. Mathematical manipulations are neither difficult nor tedious despite the non-linear relationship between measured quantities and the phase noise. The basic mathematical framework is presented in the context of examples which include synchronous detection in the presence of phase perturbations.
