Fourier transform of
signals
Definition
• Fourier Transform of a signal g(t) is denoted by:

g(t) is not necessarily periodic


• The Inverse Fourier Transform is given by:

Course Introduction: 0-4


• Linearity of the Fourier Transform (Superposition Theorem)

The Fourier transform is linear; that is, if


g1(t) ⇐⇒ G1( f ) and g2(t) ⇐⇒ G2( f )
then for all constants a1 and a2, we have
a1g1(t) + a2g2(t) ⇐⇒ a1G1( f ) + a2G2( f )

• Existence of the Fourier Transform:
In Example 3.1, we observed that when a < 0, the Fourier integral does not
converge.
Hence, the Fourier transform for e−atu(t) does not exist if a < 0 (growing
exponential)
The existence of the Fourier transform is assured for any g(t) satisfying the
Dirichlet conditions:

Useful Functions
Unit Rectangular Function

unit width, centered at the origin

the pulse)

Unit Triangular Function
• a unit triangular pulse of unit height
and unit width, centered at the origin

the pulse)

Special Function sinc (x)

• The function sinc (x) is an even function of x.


• The function sinc (x) = 0 when sin x = 0 except at x = 0, where it is
indeterminate. This means that sinc (x) = 0 for t = ±π , ±2π , ±3π , . . . .
• Using L’Hôpital’s rule, we find sinc (0) = 1.
• The function sinc (x) is the product of an oscillating signal sin x (of period
2π ) and a monotonically decreasing function 1/x Course Introduction: 0-12

Fourier Transform
Properties
Time-Frequency Duality
• The only minor difference
between these two operations
lies in the opposite signs used
in their exponential functions

• The duality property states that


if g(t) ⇐⇒ G(f )
then G(t) ⇐⇒ g(−f )
Course Introduction: 0-17
Time-Frequency Duality
• Example 3.8 : In this example, we shall apply the duality property to the pair in the
shown figure
Note: for even function
F(x) = F(-x)

Proof it !

Course Introduction: 0-18


Time-Scaling Property
• If
then, for any real constant a,

The time-scaling property states that time compression of a signal results in its spectral
expansion, and time expansion of the signal results in its spectral compression
compression in time by a factor “a” means that the signal is varying more rapidly by the
same factor
Course Introduction: 0-19
Time-Scaling Property
• Reciprocity of Signal Duration and Its Bandwidth

Course Introduction: 0-20


Time-Shifting Property
• If

Then

Delaying a signal by t0 does not change its amplitude spectrum. The phase spectrum,
however, is changed by −2πft0.

Note: Phase shift is a linear function of “f” (higher frequency components must
undergo proportionately larger phase shifts to achieve the same time delay)
Course Introduction: 0-21
Time-Shifting Property
• the frequency of the lower
sinusoid being twice that of
the upper one
• The same time delay t0
amounts to a phase shift of
π/2 in the upper sinusoid
and a phase shift of π in the
lower sinusoid
• Check example 3.9 and 3.10
Course Introduction: 0-22
Frequency-Shifting Property
(Modulation Property)

• If
Then
Multiplication of a signal by a factor ej2πf0t shifts the spectrum of that signal by f = f0
• Frequency shifting in practice is achieved by multiplying g(t) with a sinusoid

Multiplication of a signal g(t) by a sinusoid cos2πf0t of frequency f0 shifts the


spectrum G(f ) by ±f0 Course Introduction: 0-23
Frequency-Shifting Property
(Modulation Property)

• This is so called Amplitude Modulation


• The sinusoid cos 2πf0t is called the carrier,
• the signal g(t) is the modulating signal,
• the signal g(t)cos 2πf0t is the modulated signal
• To sketch the modulated signal we obsreve that:

Frequency-Shifting Property
(Modulation Property)

Course Introduction: 0-25


Frequency-Shifting Property
(Modulation Property)
We can shift the phase of each spectral component of a modulated signal by a
constant amount θ0 merely by using a carrier cos(2πf0t +θ0) instead of cos 2πf0t

Course Introduction: 0-26


Frequency-Shifting Property
(Modulation Property)
For a special case when θ0 = −π/2

sin 2πf0t is cos 2πf0t with a phase delay of π/2. Thus, shifting the carrier phase
by π/2 shifts the phase of every spectral component by π/2 Course Introduction: 0-27
