Objective:

- Understand Fourier series

- Understand DFT and FFT

Introduction:

A Fourier transform (FT) is a mathematical transform that decomposes functions depending

on space or time into functions depending on spatial frequency or temporal frequency. That

process is also called analysis. An example application would be decomposing the waveform of

a musical chord into terms of the intensity of its constituent pitches. The term Fourier

transform refers to both the frequency domain representation and the mathematical operation that

associates the frequency domain representation to a function of space or time.

Report:

1- Consider the following data x with two component frequencies of differing amplitude and

phase buried in noise with the following parameters:

a- Sampling frequency = 200hz

b- 20 second samples

c- 20 and 40 hz components

d- Gaussian noise

2- Use FFT to compute DFT y and its power

3- Plot the frequency and power
4- Rearrange the output from fft to produce 0-centered periodogram
5- Create and plot the phase
Conclusion:
This was a short and interesting lab about what we studied earlier in theory, we studied about

Fourier transform and series, in the lab we tested some graphs with different values, looking

forward to more interesting labs.
