2 - Fourier Series Properties

The document discusses Fourier series expansion. It presents three equivalent forms of Fourier series: trigonometric form, complex exponential form, and trigonometric form with amplitude and phase. It shows the relationships between the coefficients in these different forms. The key properties of Fourier series are also summarized, including hermitian symmetry and how time shifting and differentiation affect the Fourier coefficients.

These are 3 different forms for the same expression.

How to find ck and c-k from ak and bk?

Similarly by expanding out the kth term above using Euler's Formula you can see that
Ak j ck = e 2

Ak =2c k

Ak j ck = e 2

k =c k

We can derive these results in the same way as the complex exponential case using orthogonal functions!

f(t) = 1 for t = [-T/2, T/2]

Fourier Series Properties


if x (t )=a 0 +k =1 [ a k cos (k0 t )+b k sin (k0 t ) ] is real, then both a k and b k are real. And since ak j bk ck= 2 a k + j bk ck = 2

then

c k =c

i.e.,

This is true for a very wide class of periodic signals! (see Dirichlet Conditions.)

Time shifting a periodic signal creates a new periodic signal! How are the Fourier series coefficients of the two signals related?

Find the Fourier series coefficients, dn, of h(t).

1 T /2 jn t d n= T /2 ht e dt T

1 T /4 T jn t d n= T /4 t e dt T 4

We have to integrate this by parts! Instead, we can use the differentiation theorem!
