There are two kind of average power I encountered in random signal class and textbook: definition 1: average power =$$E[|x(t)|^2]=R_{xx}(0)=\int^\infty_{-\infty} S_{xx}(f)\,df$$ definition 2: average ...

I'm a bit confused with the definition of the power spectral density (PSD). From Wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_density , I found the definition is: $$ S_{xx}(\omega) = \lim_{T\...

I have never really understood what the frequency axis meant when we plot the Power Spectral Density(PSD). Does it correspond to frequency as we get after we take the Fourier Transform of a time ...

Since Fourier transform of a random stationary process in time (in the case of existence) is not necessarily real, my question is what is the relation between the covariance of real and imaginary ...

In a proof for the Wiener-Khintchine theorem (See p. 572-573) I have seen the following operation being done: \begin{align*} S_{xx}(f) &= \lim_{T \rightarrow \infty} \int_{-2T}^{2T} Rxx(\tau) e^{-...

In papers or textbooks, I have found several different definitions of PSD. I think I understand the meaning of PSD and all these papers or textbooks agrees that PSD and Fourier Series share a ...

I am trying to make my own demonstration in order to find what is equal to the FT of the Autocorrelation function. The autocorrelation function in some book about turbulence is defined as: r($\tau$)=...

I'm trying to get a good handle on the spectral theory of random signals, but there seem to be two different definitions of the power spectrum whose relation is not clear to me. On the one hand, we ...
