In the present article, we propose and study a new class of nonlinear autoregressive moving-average (ARMA) models, in which each moving-average (MA) coefficient is enlarged to an arbitrary univariate function. We first provide a sufficient condition for the existence of the stationary solution and further discuss the moment structure. We investigate the estimation method to the proposed models. The global estimates of parameters and local linear estimates of functional coefficients are obtained by using a back-fitting algorithm. For testing whether the functional coefficients are some specified parametric forms, a bootstrap test approach is provided. The proposed models are illustrated by both simulated and real data examples. Copyright 2008 The Author. Journal compilation 2008 Blackwell Publishing Ltd
