  2. Fourier series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_series

    A Fourier series (/ ˈ f ʊr i eɪ,-i ər / [1]) is an expansion of a periodic function into a sum of trigonometric functions. The Fourier series is an example of a trigonometric series. [2] By expressing a function as a sum of sines and cosines, many problems involving the function become easier to analyze because trigonometric functions are ...

    Compute the Fourier transform (b j,k) of g.Compute the Fourier transform (a j,k) of f via the formula ().Compute f by taking an inverse Fourier transform of (a j,k).; Since we're only interested in a finite window of frequencies (of size n, say) this can be done using a fast Fourier transform algorithm.

  4. Plane wave expansion method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_wave_expansion_method

    Plane wave expansion method (PWE) refers to a computational technique in electromagnetics to solve the Maxwell's equations by formulating an eigenvalue problem out of the equation. This method is popular among the photonic crystal community as a method of solving for the band structure (dispersion relation) of specific photonic crystal geometries.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_transform

    An example application of the Fourier transform is determining the constituent pitches in a musical waveform.This image is the result of applying a constant-Q transform (a Fourier-related transform) to the waveform of a C major piano chord.

  7. Harmonic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_analysis

    Harmonic analysis is a branch of mathematics concerned with investigating the connections between a function and its representation in frequency.The frequency representation is found by using the Fourier transform for functions on unbounded domains such as the full real line or by Fourier series for functions on bounded domains, especially periodic functions on finite intervals.

    These are called Fourier series coefficients. The term Fourier series actually refers to the inverse Fourier transform, which is a sum of sinusoids at discrete frequencies, weighted by the Fourier series coefficients. When the non-zero portion of the input function has finite duration, the Fourier transform is continuous and finite-valued.
