Power Spectrum
A Brownian motion also called a Wiener process is obtained as the integral of a white noise signal, ,
meaning that Brownian motion is the integral of the white noise whose power spectral density is flat
Note that here denotes the Fourier transform and is a constant. An important property of this transform is that the derivative of any distribution transforms as
from which we can conclude that the power spectrum of Brownian noise is

Famous quotes containing the word power:
“He who knows that power is inborn, that he is weak because he has looked for good out of him and elsewhere, and, so perceiving, throws himself unhesitatingly on his thought, instantly rights himself, stands in the erect position, commands his limbs, works miracles; just as a man who stands on his feet is stronger than a man who stands on his head.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
