In this paper it is demonstrated that also the superposition of many similar single-sided two-level signals, with the same relaxation time, produces noise. This is possible tanks to the coincidences among the signals which introduce cross-correlations and tune locally the resulting process in trains of pseudo-periodic pulses. Computer simulations demonstrate the reliability of this model, which permits to insert in an coherent framework other models solving problems still open.11 pages, 4 figuresData Analysis, Statistics and ProbabilityGeneral PhysicsPseudo-periodicity and 1/f noise from the sum of similar intermittent signalstext
