This document contains a summary of key concepts from a chapter on Fourier transforms and their properties. It begins with an overview of the motivation for Fourier transforms as an extension of Fourier series to allow representation of aperiodic signals. It then provides examples of Fourier transforms for common functions like a rectangular pulse and exponential. The remainder summarizes important properties of Fourier transforms including: time-frequency duality, symmetry of direct and inverse transforms, scaling which relates time/bandwidth compression, time-shifting which causes phase change, and frequency-shifting which translates the spectrum.

3. Fourier Transform
Motivation
•
The motivation for the Fourier transform comes from the study of
Fourier series.
•
In Fourier series complicated periodic functions are written as
the sum of simple waves mathematically represented by sines
and cosines.
•
Due to the properties of sine and cosine it is possible to recover
the amount of each wave in the sum by an integral
•
In many cases it is desirable to use Euler's formula, which states
that e2πiθ = cos 2πθ + i sin 2πθ, to write Fourier series in terms of
the basic waves e2πiθ.
•
From sines and cosines to complex exponentials makes it
necessary for the Fourier coefficients to be complex valued.
complex number gives both the amplitude (or size) of the wave
present in the function and the phase (or the initial angle) of the
wave.

4. Fourier Transform
• The Fourier series can only be used for periodic
signals.
• We may use Fourier series to motivate the Fourier
transform.
• How can the results be extended for Aperiodic
signals such as g(t) of limited length T ?

If we continue doubling To repeatedly, the spectrum becomes
denser while its magnitude becomes smaller, but the relative
shape of the envelope will remain the same.

45. Some properties of Fourier transform
Reciprocity of the Signal Duration and its Bandwidth
As g(t) is wider, its spectrum is narrower and vice versa.
Doubling the signal duration halves its bandwidth.
Bandwidth of a signal is inversely proportional to the signal duration
or width.

e jwot is not a real function that can be generated
In practice frequency shift is achieved by multiplying g(t) by a
sinusoid as:
Multiplying g(t) by aasinusoid of frequency
Multiplying g(t) by sinusoid of frequency
shift the spectrum G(w) by ± wo
shift the spectrum G(w) by
Multiplication of sinusoid by g(t) amounts to modulating the sinusoid
amplitude. This type of modulation is called amplitude modulation.
