Brownian noise a white noise signal: meaning that Brownian motion is the integral of the white noise formula_2, whose power spectral density is flat: Note that here formula_4 denotes the Fourier transform, and formula_5 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 Brown noise can be produced by integrating white noise. That is, whereas (digital) white noise can be produced by randomly choosing each sample independently, Brown noise can be produced by adding a random offset to each sample
Fractional Brownian motion Suppose we want to simulate the values of the "fBM" at times formula_12 using the Cholesky decomposition method. In order to compute formula_15, we can use for instance the Cholesky decomposition method. An alternative method uses the eigenvalues of formula_16: Note that the result is real-valued because formula_36. Note that since the eigenvectors are linearly independent, the matrix formula_39 is invertible. It is also known that where "B" is a standard Brownian motion and Where formula_47 is the Euler hypergeometric integral. Say we want to simulate an "fBm" at points formula_48. The integral may be efficiently computed by Gaussian quadrature.
