Making use of the scaling rule, it is then easy to show that the general 2D lattice transforms this way: (8) This means that a lattice with spacings 1/a and 1/b transforms to a lattice with spacings a and b, respectively. This is the origin of the term "reciprocal space" for the Fourier transform space. 2D Power spectrum
