This paper considers a large class of non-stationary random fields which have fractal characteristics and may exhibit long-range dependence. Its motivation comes from a Lipschitz-Holder-type condition in the spectral domain.

The paper develops a spectral theory for the random fields, including a spectral decomposition, a covariance representation and a fractal index. From the covariance representation, the covariance function and spectral density of these fields are defined. These concepts are useful in multiscaling analysis of random fields with long-range dependence.
