1.Impulse response

Joseph Fourier first represented Fourier integral theorem in the following DOE:

Which is then introduced into the first delta function as following:

And the end end up with what mathematicians called Dirac delta function:

2.Fourier series

The input x(t) is a function with a fundamental period x(t)= 1 from x= 0 to 1 and f(x)= -1 from x= -1 to 0, with a discontinuity at x=0. The following graphs from matlab represents Gibbs phenomena, as n increases the overshot decreases.

3.Filters

The upper is the Gaussian filter, while bottom is the unsharp.
