The bispectrum of the Cantor set that is a typical regular fractal is calculated and its fractalities are shown. A relation between the bispectrum and the fractal dimension of the object is elucidated. Effects of additive random noise on the scaling property of the bispectrum are compared with those of the corresponding power spectrum.

Key words : bispectrum, power spectrum, fractal, Cantor set, random noise, band-average, power law
