4.1

Continuous Time Fourier Transform Pair for Aperiodic and Periodic Signals

$ x(t) = \frac{1}{2\pi}\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} X(j \omega) e^{j\omega t} \, d\omega $ (4.8)
$ X(j\omega) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} x(t) e^{-j\omega t} \, dt $ (4.9)

The Fourier transform exists if the signal is absolutely integrable or if the signal has a finite number of discontinuities within any finite interval. (See Page 290)

Fourier Transform from the Fourier Series

This is useful for signals that fail to satisfy the previous properties of a signal that is guaranteed a Fourier Transform.

A signal represented as the sum of complex exponentials:

$ x(t) = \sum_{k = -\infty}^{+\infty} a_ke^{jk\omega_0t} $

with ak's:

$ a_k = \frac{1}{T}\int_{T} x(t)e^{-jk\omega_0 t} \, dt $

$ \xrightarrow{\mathcal{F}} $

$ X(j\omega) = \sum_{k = -\infty}^{+\infty} 2\pi a_k \delta(\omega - k\omega_0) $
