Question on Checking the stationarity of a Process

Suppose, $Xt$ is a time series, defined by,
$Xt = cos(t+Y)$,
where $Y$ is a random variable, uniformly distributed over $[0,2pi]$.
How do I conclude that $Xt$ is a STRICT-SENSE stationary process?



What I figured out is that for stationarity, the cumulative PDF of a number of collections of random variables constituting the random process must remain unchanged when shifted in time.



But, how do I prove this mathematically or intuitively for the given time series?
I'm just starting out on learning about random processes and encountered this as an example in the Wikipedia article.

  • How does that work? Y is uniformly distributed in [0,2pi]. Adding some other variable to it might lead Y+d to exceed the range of [0,2pi].

  • Sorry, correction: $cos(Y+t)stackrel d=cos Y$.
