The DTFT of a rectangle is a sinc-like function, called the Dirichlet form:

Last Time We found that an approximation to the Continuous Time Fourier Transform may be found by sampling at every Δ and turning the continuous Fourier integral into a discrete sum.

Inverse DTFT of the rectangular pulse. In the frequency domain, the sin pulse (2Bf ci) has an amplitude of one, and x[i]' runs from zero frequency to the fc , acutoff value frequency, iB between 0 and 0.5.

The DTFT, which pertains to signals that have been sampled in time, produces a representation that is periodic in frequency. This relationship between the CTFT and the DTFT for signals related by …

DFT = Discrete Fourier series of a periodic signal Suppose x[n] is periodic, with a period of N. If it were de ned in continuous time, its Fourier series would be

The Fourier Series (FS) and the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) should be thought of as playing similar roles for periodic signals in either continuous time (FS) or discrete time (DFT). Both analyze …

9.6 Correlation of Discrete-Time Signals A signal operation similar to signal convolution, but with completely different
