Testing Parseval's Theorem with Power Spectral Density

Suppose I am finding the power spectral density of data like such:



x = winter_data.values #measured at frequency 1Hz
f, Sxx = sp.signal.welch(x1, fs=1, window='hanning', nperseg=N, noverlap = N / 2)


I want to test that Parseval's theorem works on these data sets. Since welch returns the power spectral density, should we not have



np.trapz(x**2, dx=1)


and



len(x1)*np.trapz(Sxx, f)


equal to eachother? Or is my definition of power spectral density incorrect? (np.trapz() is just used to calculate the integrals). I always thought that power spectral density was defined as



S_xx(f) = (1/T)|X(f)|^2



Currently I am not getting them equal.

  • They are approxmatively equal for some test data I made up. The windowing procedure will make them non equal anyway. What error do you have?

  • I'm getting 100000 for the np.trapz(x**2, dx=1) and 1000000 for len(x1)*np.trapz(Sxx, f). So abour 10x greater.

  • It is possible that the DC componennt is removed by welch. Could you try np.trapz((x-x.mean())**2, dx=1)?
