15.3 Fourier Integral
Fourier Integral In ch 12, f(x) defined in (-p,p) f(x)= FS(x) Fourier Series (periodic function) In 15.3, f(x) defined in (-infinity, + infinity) f(x)= FI(x) Fourier Integral
Fourier Integral Definition f(x) defined in (-infinity, + infinity) The Fourier Integral f(x) is given by where Example1: Find the Fourier Integral representation of the function
Remarks 1) f(x) even - f(x)sin odd - B( )=0 - Fourier cosine Integral FCI where 2) f(x) odd - f(x)cos odd - A( )=0 - Fourier sine Integral FSI where 3) FI (x) = f(x) where x is a point of continuity FI (x) = average where x is a point of discontinuity 4) f(x) defined on ( 0, inf ) then FCI or FSI Example1: represent f(x) = exp(-x), x > 0 a) by cosine integral b) by sine integral
Complex Fourier Integral Definition f(x) defined in (-infinity, + infinity) The Fourier Integral in complex form of f(x) is given by where
