INTRODUCTION

Fourier transform (FT) of a signal

y ( t )

is defined as

F

Y

( ω

) =

−∞

y ( t ) e −

jωt

dt.

Since

ω

πf

(^) , we may write

F

Y

( f (^) ) =

−∞

y ( t ) e − j 2

πf t

dt

Here,

we

assume

∞ −∞

| y ( t ) |

dt <

(for

the

Fourier

transform

to

converge).

The inverse Fourier transform is given by

y ( t ) =

F − 1 { F Y ( f

Answer: Integrating PSD over frequencyWhy the name power spectral density (PSD)?

f

is

the total power measured in frequency domain.
