Recently I read Prof. Cogdell's notes: Lectures on L-functions, Converse Theorems, and Functoriality for $GL_n$. (Co) In chap.2.3, the conception of smooth automorphic forms is introdued. Explicitly, ...

Let $G:=\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{R})$ and $f\in C_c^\infty(G)$. One can uniquely determine the Plancherel measure $d\mu_p$ on $\hat{G}$, the unitary (actually tempered) dual of $G$, by the equation $$f(g)...
