众所周知,加性高斯白噪声 (AWGN) 的 PSD 是恒定的并且等于其方差。那么有色高斯噪声(CGN)呢?

例如,给定以下 CGN 的 PSD

S(f)=1f

这种噪声的频谱密度与频率有关吗?如果是这样,如何通过一些“逆”自相关函数获得 PDF?

根据定义,彩色高斯噪声是广义平稳(WSS) 过程;即具有恒定均值(构成过程的所有随机变量均值相同),其自相关函数仅取决于的论点。通常使用来表示差异,并通过编写而不是更冗长的来滥用符号来表示自相关函数. 该过程的功率谱密度 (PSD) 就是的傅里叶变换: RX(t1,t2)=E[X(t1)X(t2)] t2t1τt2t1RX(τ)RX(0,τ)=RX(t,t+τ)RX(τ)

SX(f)=RX(τ)ej2πftdt.
The PSD is an even nonnegative function of f.

White noise is a zero-mean process for which RX(τ)=Kδ(τ) where δ() is the Dirac delta or impulse and its PSD has constant value K for <f<. Colored noise is a zero-mean process whose PSD is not constant for all f. Colored Gaussian noise is a process in which all the random variables are zero-mean correlated (jointly) Gaussian random variables with random variables separated by time τ having covariance RX(τ). Note that the variance of all the random variables is σ2=RX(0). The PSD has the connection to the PDF that the PSD determines the variance of the random variables in question via the following corollary to the inverse Fourier transform formula:

σ2=RX(0)=SX(f)df.
Note that all the random variables constituting the process have the same (Gaussian) PDF (and so the same mean and same variance) and the variance is not a time-varying function due to the noise being colored.

Assuming E{x}=0

E{|x|2}=rxx(0)=S(f)df

The PDF is Gaussian, what other PDF are you asking about?

For example, consider a discrete-time integrator

Xk+1=Xk+Uk

where X0=:x0 is the (zero-variance) initial condition and UkN(0,σ2) is the AWGN input.

X1=x0+U0X2=x0+U0+U1X3=x0+U0+U1+U2Xn=x0+U0+U1+U2++Un1

Hence,

E(Xn)=x0Var(Xn)=nσ2

Since the addition of independent Gaussian random variables is still Gaussian, we conclude that

XnN(x0,nσ2)

Linear systems preserve "Gaussian-ness". Sometimes, one can do without the frequency domain.
