This work presents a possible luminosity estimator for the long gamma-ray bursts based on the light curves. We use the methods of temporal variability analysis in time domain to calculate the power density spectrum (PDS) of the 12 γ-ray bursts (GRBs) with known redshifts observed by CGRO/BATSE. The peak of the power density P measures the variability intensity of each light curve and a strong correlation is found between P and the isotropic peak luminosity L. It's a new relationship between the temporal quantities and the luminosities of long GRBs, succeeding the lag-luminosity relation suggested by Norris et al.(2000) and variability-luminosity relation shown by Reichart et al. (2001).
