A suitable frequency-domain description would be the line spectrum

Phase angles will be measured with respect to cosine waves. Hence, sine waves need to be converted to cosines via the identitysin ωt = cos (ωt – 90o)We regard amplitude as always being a positive quantity. When negative signs appear, they must be absorbed in the phase using- A cos ωt = A cos (ωt ± 180o)

Let v(t) be a power signal with period T0=1/f0. Its exponential Fourier series expansion is

The series coefficients are related to v(t) by

|c(nf0)| represents the amplitude spectrum as a function of f, and arg c(nf0) represents the phase spectrum. Three important spectral properties of periodic power signals are listed below.

1. All frequencies are integer multiples or harmonics of the fundamental frequency f0=1/T0. Thus the spectral lines have uniform spacing f0.

2. The DC component equals the average value of the signal, since setting n = 0

𝑐ሺ0ሻ= 1𝑇𝑜 න 𝑣ሺ𝑡ሻ𝑑𝑡𝑇𝑜 ۄ����������𝑣(𝑡)ۃ������� =

3. If v(t) is a real (noncomplex) function of time, then𝑐−𝑛 = 𝑐𝑛∗ = ȁI𝑐𝑛ȁI𝑒𝑗ȁrg 𝑐𝑛 With replacing n by - n ȁI𝑐ሺ−𝑛𝑓0ሻȁI= ȁI𝑐ሺ−𝑛𝑓0ሻȁI ȁrg𝑐ሺ−𝑛𝑓0ሻ= − ȁrg𝑐ሺ−𝑛𝑓0ሻ

which means that the amplitude spectrum has even symmetry and the phase spectrum has odd symmetry.

The amplitude spectrum obtained from |c(nf0)| = |cn| = Af0 τ|sinc nf0 τ|

for the case of τ/T0 = τf0 =1/4

We construct this plot by drawing the continuous function Af0 τ|sinc nfτ| as a dashed curve, which becomes the envelope of the lines.The spectral lines at ±4f0, ±8f0, and so on, are “missing” since they fall precisely at multiples of 1/τ where the envelope equals zero.The dc component has amplitude c(0) = Aτ/T0 which should be recognized as the average value of v(t). Incidentally, τ/T0 equals the ratio of “on” time to period, frequently designated as the duty cycle in pulse electronics work

The phase spectrum is obtained by observing that cn is always real but sometimes negative. Hence, arg c(nf0) takes on the values 0o and ±180o, depending on the sign of sinc nf0 τ.

Both +180o and -180o were used here to bring out the odd symmetry of the phase.

Having decomposed the pulse train into its frequency components, let’s build it back up again. For that purpose, we’ll write out the trigonometric series, still taking τ/T0 = f0 τ = 1/4, so c0=A/4 and |2cn|=(2A/4) |sinc n/4| = (2A/πn) |sin πn/4|. Thus

Convergence Conditions and Gibbs Phenomenon

20

The Dirichlet conditions for Fourier series expansion are as follows:

If a periodic function v(t) has • a finite number of maxima, minima, and discontinuities per period, • and if v(t) is absolutely integrable, so that v(t) has a finite area per period,

then the Fourier series exists and converges uniformly wherever v(t) is continuous.

These conditions are sufficient but not strictly necessary.

21

An alternative condition is that v(t) be square integrable, so that |v(t)|2 has finite area per period—equivalent to a power signal.

Under this condition, the series converges in the mean such that if

𝑣𝑁ሺ𝑡ሻ= 𝑐 𝑒𝑗2𝜋𝑛𝑓0𝑡𝑁𝑛=−𝑁

lim𝑁 → ∞ න ȁI𝑣ሺ𝑡ሻ− 𝑣𝑁ሺ𝑡ሻȁI2𝑑𝑡𝑇0 = 0

then

In other words, the mean square difference between v(t) and the partial sum vN(t) vanishes as more terms are included.

The Fourier transform of v(t)

The time function v(t) is recovered from V( f ) by the inverse Fourier transform

a nonperiodic signal will have a continuous spectrum rather than a line spectrum.

In the periodic case we return to the time domain by summing discrete-frequency phasors, while in the nonperiodic case we integrate a continuous frequency function

Three major properties of V( f ) are listed below

1. The Fourier transform is a complex function, so |V(f)| is the amplitude spectrum of v(t) and arg V(f) is the phase spectrum.

2. The value of V(f) at f = 0 equals the net area of v(t), since

which compares with the periodic case where c(0) equals the average value of v(t)

We may take 1/τ as a measure of the spectral “width.”

If the pulse duration is reduced (small τ), the frequency width is increased, whereas increasing the duration reduces the spectral width

Thus, short pulses have broad spectra, and long pulses have narrow spectra. This phenomenon, called reciprocal spreading,

Time Delay and Scale Change

Replacing t by t - td in v(t) produces the time-delayed signal v(t - td).

The amplitude spectrum remains unchanged in either case, since

Scale change, produces a horizontally scaled image of v(t) by replacing t with αt.

The scale signal v(αt) will be expanded if |α| < 1 or compressed if |α| > 1; a

negative value of α yields time reversal as well as expansion or compression.

1. The significant components are concentrated around the frequency fc.

2. Though V(f) was bandlimited in W, V (f - fc) has a spectral width of 2W. Translation has therefore doubled spectral width. Stated another way, the negative-frequency portion of V(f) now appears at positive frequencies.

3. V(f - fc) is not hermitian but does have symmetry with respect to translated origin at f = fc.

These considerations are the basis of carrier modulation, we have the following modulation theorem:

Integration theorem

Differentiation enhances the high-frequency components of a signal, since|j 2πfV(f )| > |V(f)| for |f | > 1/2π.

Conversely, integration suppresses the high-frequency components.

First, we reverse w(t) in time and replace t with λ to get w(λ);

Second, we shift w(λ) to the right by t units to get w[-(λ-t)] = w(t-λ) for a given value of t.
