Contributions by Fourier
The study of signals and systems using sinusoidal
representations is termed as Fourier Analysis.
In studying the propagation and diffusion of heat in solids, by
1807, Fourier had found a series of harmonically related
sinusoids to be useful in representing the temperature
distribution through a body.
He also claimed that any periodic signal could be represented
by such a series, which is called the Fourier series
representation.
He also obtained a representation for aperiodic signals as
weighted integrals of sinusoids that are not all harmonically
related, called the Fourier integral or Fourier transform.
In 1822, Fourier published his results in expanded form as a
book Theorie analytique de la chaleur (The Analytical theory of
Heat), which is a classic text.
