FFT Analyzers and Applications
- FFT analyzers are used in various fields, including acoustics, vibration analysis, and telecommunications.
- FFT is used to analyze sound or noise signals, determine frequencies at which structures or machines might resonate, and analyze the frequency content of signals.
Emerging Technologies Based on FFT
- Quantum Computing
- 5G and Beyond Wireless Networks
- Advanced Radar and Satellite Imaging
- Deep Learning and Neural Networks
- Bioinformatics and Health Diagnostics
- Environmental Modeling and Climate Science
DFT and FFT
- DFT transforms a finite sequence of equally-spaced samples of a function into a same-length sequence of equally-spaced samples in the frequency domain.
- X[k] is the k-th element of the frequency domain sequence.
- N, the number of samples in the time domain, is usually a power of two (e.g., 128, 256, 512, 1024, etc.) for efficient digital data storage and FFT algorithm operation.
- Typically, N is selected between 32 and 4096.
Computation of a DFT
- Explanation of terms: frequency bins, phase, amplitude
- Simple numerical example (Python)
FFT Algorithm
- Cooley Tukey Algorithm is a divide-and-conquer approach to computing the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) of a composite size N= n1 * n2.
Introduction to Fourier Transform
- Historical background: Jean-Baptiste Joseph Fourier introduced the concept of representing periodic/non-periodic functions as a series of sines and cosines in his work "Théorie analytique de la chaleur" (1822).
- Definition: The FT converts a time-domain signal into a frequency-domain representation, offering insights not readily apparent in the time domain.
- The Continuous Fourier Transform of a time-domain signal f(t) is given by: F(ω) = ∫[−∞∞] f(t) e^−iωt dt.
Decomposition of Fourier Transform Equation
- Euler Complex Exponential equation: e^ix = cos(x) + i sin(x)
- Relationship between Fourier equation and triangle, phase, magnitude, catheti.
