EE1 and ISE1 Communications I: Pier Luigi Dragotti Lecture Four

This document discusses Fourier series analysis. It begins by introducing trigonometric Fourier series, where any signal can be represented as the sum of sines and cosines of integer multiples of a fundamental frequency. It then discusses exponential Fourier series and how they are related to trigonometric series using Euler's formula. The document also discusses amplitude and phase spectra, properties of periodic Fourier series, and Parseval's theorem relating power in the time and frequency domains.

A sinusoid of frequency n
0
is called the n
th
harmonic of the sinusoid, where
n is an integer.
The sinusoid of frequency
0
is called the fundamental harmonic.
This set is orthogonal over an interval of duration T
0
= 2/

, which is the
period of the fundamental.

Periodicity of the Trigonometric series
We have seen that an arbitrary signal g(t) may be expressed as a trigonometric Fourier series
over any interval of T
0
seconds.
What happens to the Trigonometric Fourier series outside this interval?
Answer: The Fourier series is periodic of period T
0
(the period of the fundamental harmonic).
Proof:
(t) = C

Properties of trigonometric series
The trigonometric Fourier series is a periodic function of period T
0
= 2/
0
.
If the function g(t) is periodic with period T
0
, then a Fourier series representing
g(t) over an interval T
0
will also represent g(t) for all t.

We can plot
the amplitude C

the phase

This two plots together are the frequency spectra of g(t).
