Spectral DensityIn physics, the spectral density, or more correctly the power spectral density (PSD) of a given bandwidth of electromagnetic radiation is the total power in this bandwidth divided by the specified bandwidth. Spectral density is usually expressed in watts per hertz (W/Hz). There exist both power and energy spectral densities. The energy spectral density is defined as -
Note that the total energy in the frequency domain equals the total energy in the time domain: -
This is a result of Parseval's theorem. Practically, for discrete-time signals, the PSD is calculated using the FFT. One example is Welch's method. See also External links
