This pages contains exercises to practice computing the Fourier series of a DT signal
Note: This is a collective study page. You are expected to participate by adding content/comment/questions/exercises etc. This is a wiki after all!
Recall the basic formulas
- Fourier series of a discrete-time signal x[n] periodic with period N
- $ x[n]=\sum_{k=0}^{N-1} a_k e^{j \frac{2\pi}{N}kn} $
- Fourier series coefficients of a continuous-time signal x(t) periodic with period T
- $ a_k=\frac{1}{N} \sum_{0}^{N-1} x[n] e^{-j \frac{2\pi}{N}nk} $
Case 1: For some periodic functions, the Fourier series coefficients must be obtained using the above summation formula
- DT Fourier series coefficients of a periodic square wave (in DT)

The following pages contain a periodic signal along with a computation of the Fourier series coefficients of that signal. These were contributed by your peers in ECE301. Check whether the answers are correct. Are all the steps explained clearly and logically? Do you have questions? Feel free to comment directly on the pages!
