of Fourier Series and Transform
If any nonsinusoidal waves, such as square waves, are to be
transmitted by a communications system, then it is important to
realize that each such wave may be broken down into its component
sine waves.
As a general rule, the higher the harmonic, the lower its energy
level, so that in bandwidth calculations the highest harmonics are
often ignored.
