Abstract
A model of a fractional Brownian process is defined by its structural function with a Hurst exponent α ∈ (0, 1). It is proved that the spectral density of this process exists and coincides with the known power-law relationship only for values of the exponent α ∈ (0, 1/2]. In the range of α ∈ (1/2, 1), the spectral density does not exist and the periodogram estimate of the exponent has a constant value equal to 1/2. The theoretical results were verified by modeling trajectories of the process, calculating periodograms, and estimating the spectral density exponent.
