Abstract: We consider random walks perturbed at zero which behave like (possibly different) random walk with independent and identically distributed increments on each half lines and restarts at $0$ whenever they cross that point. We show that the perturbed random walk, after being rescaled in a proper way, converges to a skew Brownian motion whose parameter is defined by renewal functions of the simple random walk and the transition probabilities from $0$.

Keywords: Invariance principle, Reflected Brownian motion, Renewal function, Skew Brownian motion.
