Fourier series:
 The representation of signals over a certain interval of time in
terms of the linear combination of orthogonal functions is called
Fourier series.
 Fourier series is applicable only for periodic signals
 Three methods:
1. Trigonometric form
2. Cosine form
3. Exponential form
 If the orthogonal functions are exponential then it is called
exponential Fourier series.
 If the orthogonal functions are trigonometric functions, then it is
called Trigonometric Fourier series.
Dirichlet’s conditions
 The Conditions under which periodic signals can be
represented by a Fourier series are known as Dirichlet’s
conditions
 In each period the function x(t)
1) Single valued function
2) Finite number of maxima and minima
3) Finite number of discontinuities
4) Absolutely integrable over one period i.e.
T
0
x(t ) dt 
Cosine Representation(alternative form of the
Trigonometric representation)
Wave Symmetry
 If the periodic signal x(t) has some type of symmetry, then
some of the trigonometric Fourier coefficients may become
zero and calculations of the coefficients becomes simple.
 Types of symmetry
1. Even symmetry
2. Odd symmetry
3. Half wave Symmetry
4. Quarter wave Symmetry

Fourier Spectrum
•Fourier spectrum of a periodic signal x(t) is a plot of its
Fourier coefficients verses frequency.

•It has two parts


1. Amplitude spectrum 2. Phase spectra

•The frequency spectrum exists only at discrete frequencies nωo ,


where n=0,1,2,… hence it is known as discrete spectrum or line spectrum

•The Trigonometric representation of periodic signal x(t) contains both


sine and cosine terms with positive and negative amplitude coefficients
(an and bn ) but with no phase angles

•The Cosine representation of a periodic signal contains only positive


amplitude coefficients with phase angle θn. In this representation
Fourier coefficients exists for only positive frequencies, this spectra
is called single sided spectra.
Complex frequency Spectrum
•The Fourier spectrum for exponential representation can be
plotted for both positive and negative frequencies and hence
it is called two sided spectra

Cosine Fourier series


Complex exponential Fourier series
Single sided Spectrum
Two sided Spectrum
Properties of Fourier series:
Linearity Property
Time shifting Property
Time Reversal Property
Time scaling Property
Time Differentiation
Time Integration
Convolution
Modulation or Multiplication
Fourier transform
 Transformation technique- continuous time domain signal to
frequency domain signal and vice versa.
 Applicable for both periodic as well as aperiodic signals.
 Developed by finding the fourier series of a periodic function and
then tending T to infinite
 Mathematical tool used in analysis of LTI systems, Cryptography,
signals analysis, signal processing, astronomy, etc.
 Applications ranging from radar to spread spectrum
communication.
Fourier Transform representation of
non periodic function
 Consider an arbitrary periodic function x(t) with fundamental
period T.
 The spectrum of such a periodic signal will be discrete one with
spectral lines at frequencies 0,fo,2fo,… with the adjacent spectral
lines separated by a frequency fo=1/T.
 Suppose we increase the fundamental period T, amplitude of the
spectrum is decreased but general shape remains unchanged and
spectral lines becomes closer and closer.
 As the pulses in x(t) is separated by T sec, as T increases the
interval becomes longer as T goes to infinity, adjacent pulses
separated by infinite amount of time i.e. x(t) becomes a
nonperiodic function.
 Nonperiodic signal will have continuous spectrum
Dirichlet’s conditions
 Fourier Transform does not exist for all aperiodic functions.
 The Conditions for a function x(t) to have a fourier
transform, called Dirichlet’s conditions are:
1) x(t) is absolutely integral over the interval

2) x(t) has a finite number of discontinuities in every finite


time interval.
3) x(t) has a finite number of maxima and minima in every
finite time interval
