What does exists is a formula for how a single sine spur would produce
ADEV. A FM deviation with low enough modulation index creates two
side-bands of opposite sign but same amplitude.

I find the easiest way to wrap my head around this is to think
about measuring Adev by timing zero-crossings.

Depending on the modulation signal, there may be moments where the
zero-crossing is "where it should be", for instance if the modulation
is sine or triangular, but not if it is a signed square wave.




What about doing some sort of fit to the measurement data before calculating the ADEV? Similar to removing a linear ramp.

basically you'd solve for the three sine parameters (f, phase, amp/deviation), then remove that from the data, then run the ADEV calculation.
