TRANSFORM
EEE 107 2SAY1314
(Gualvez, Ortiz, Pulanco, Santos AJ, Silva)
What it does
The Hilbert transform simply phase shifts all frequency
components of the input signal by /2 radians.
It is a basic tool in Fourier analysis, and provides a
concrete means for realizing the harmonic conjugate of
a given function or Fourier series.
Steps: Given a signal g(t)
Get the Fourier transform of g(t)
Reject the negative frequencies
Get the inverse Fourier transform of G(f)
Definition
Let g(t) be a Fourier transformable signal. Its Hilbert
transform is:

Correspondingly, the inverse Hilbert transform is:

The Hilbert transform of g(t) is the convolution of g(t)
with the signal 1/t.
Interaction with
the Fourier Transform
The Hilbert transform is easier to understand in the
frequency domain than in the time domainthe Hilbert
transform does not change the magnitude of G(f), it
changes only the phase.
Fourier transform values at positive frequencies are
multiplied by j (corresponding to a phase change of
/2) while Fourier transform values at negative
frequencies are multiplied by j (corresponding to a
phase change of /2).

Interaction with
the Fourier Transform
The Hilbert transform essentially acts to exchange the
real and imaginary parts of G(f).
