Energy Spectral DensityThe distribution of the energy of a signal in the frequency domain is known as energy spectral density (ESD) or energy density (ED) or energy density spectrum. The ESD function is denoted by $\mathrm{\mathit{\psi \left ( \omega \right )}}$ and is given by, $$\mathrm{\mathit{\psi \left ( \omega \right )\mathrm{=}\left|X\left ( \omega \right ) \right|^{\mathrm{2}}}}$$For an energy signal, the total area under the energy spectral density curve plotted as the function of frequency is equal to the total energy of the signal.ExplanationConsider a linear system having $\mathrm{\mathit{x\left ( \mathit{t} \right )}}$ and $\mathrm{\mathit{y\left ( \mathit{t} \right )}}$ as input ...
