Abstract
We reconfirm some classical results that the local time process is a proper scale to find limits of additive functionals of Brownian motion [7] (Chapter 6.8, (10)), and we use the excursion theory to prove the corresponding central limit theorem.

We use BES\((\delta )\) to denote the Bessel process of dimension \(\delta \).
