2l t = −l
Parseval’s identity:
Suppose f is a periodic function with period 2l, represented by a Fourier series:
a0 nπt nπt
f (t ) = + ∑ ∞n =1 an cos + bn sin , −l ≤ t ≤ l . … (1)
2 l l
Then
1 l a02
∫ −l [ f (t )] dt = + ∑ ∞n =1 (an2 + bn2 ) .

… (2)
l 2
The quantity given by (6) represents the power generated by each frequency component of the
current I in one cycle, and is usually called the power spectrum of the current I.

In fact, we have

where a0 = , an = and bn = 0 for all n.

Substituting these values in the Parseval’s identity
