    I need a good explanation of phase and magnitude spectra

    I understand that having a periodic signal x(t) we can find a signal y(t) which uses harmonically related exponentials in order to construct the x(t) signal each exponential has a frequency and magnitude, for example 3*e^{j 2 \omega} has a frequency of \frac{2 \pi}{2 \omega} =...

    Oversampling/undersampling of a continuous time signal and preventing aliasing

    Hi everyone, I want to understand how these concepts work. Suppose that we have a signal x(t) which has a maximum frequency component of 3 Hz. So let the DTFT of this signal be like that: http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/1134/31096081.png Also let y[n] be the digital signal that we get...

    Purpose of fourier series and fourier transform

    Hi I'm trying to understand what we mean when we say that the Fourier transform is used to transform a signal from the time domain to the frequency domain and what we actually have in the frequency domain. In Fourier series we are actually using a different representation of the signal in terms...

    Problem with summation, how did he find this result?

    Homework Statement Hi I was trying to understand an algorithm analysis problem and I came to this point: [PLAIN]http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/1834/unledytw.png can someone explain me what he did there? Is there any other step between that should have been written in order for...

    How can the inner product of two signals be calculated?

    thanks for your reply so, if I took from -T to T it would be an interval 2 times larger than the interval of a period, which is correct right? but if I integrate from 0 to T I will get a different result do you mean by "the same result" that the answer to a question that wants an inner...

    How can the inner product of two signals be calculated?

    Homework Statement Hi suppose you're given two signals for example x_{1}(t) = cos(3 \omega_{0} t) x_{2}(t) = cos(7 \omega_{0} t) and you want to find out the inner product Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution I mean, it's an integral right? But what will the boundaries be...

    Nyquist - shannon sampling theorem example

    thanks lewando What I was meaning is that x(t) may have two components but the overall frequency is the least common multiple of the frequencies of each of these 2 components right? so the result will be different thus if I understand correctly the result should be 2*f1 = 9 because f1 > f2...

    Nyquist - shannon sampling theorem example

    Homework Statement What sampling frequency would you use to sample the following signal x(t) = 3sin(9πt) - 6cos(8πt)Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution let T1 be the period of 3sin(9πt) and T2 the period of 6cos(8πt) T1 = 2π/9π = 2/9 Τ2 = 2π/8π = 2/8 thus, if f1 is the frequency of...

    Discovering the Fourier Transform to Solving for X(jω)

    thanks I have one more question I think I'm wrong with my FT calculations25g(t-10) \leftrightarrow 25 X(j \omega) e^{-j 10 \omega} but I have 25g(\frac{1}{8}(t-10)) hence 25g(1/8(t-10)) \leftrightarrow 200 X(j 8 \omega) e^{-j 10 \omega} I mean I should first find 25 g(1/8 t) and then...

    Discovering the Fourier Transform to Solving for X(jω)

    Yes you're right 25g(1/8(t-10)) \leftrightarrow 200 X(j 8 \omega) e^{-j 80 \omega} "Also, I'm not sure where you got the overall factor of 1/8 in front." isn't 25g(1/8(t-10)) = x(t)? for g(1/8 t - 10/8) and the first interval I will have 1 - |\frac{t}{8} - \frac{10}{8}| for...

    Discovering the Fourier Transform to Solving for X(jω)

    Homework Statement find the Fourier transform of the function x(t)=\left\{\begin{matrix} &25 - \frac{25}{8}|t-10| &for &|t-10|<8 \\ &0 &for& |t-10|>8 \end{matrix}\right. Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution we know that g(t)=\left\{\begin{matrix} &1-|t| &for &|t|<1 \\ &0...
