Least Squares, Orthogonality, and the Fourier Series

2.1    Introduction

The three topics reviewed in this chapter (least squares, orthogonality, and the Fourier series) have been fundamental to digital signal processing (DSP) since its beginning. An understanding of these subjects provides insight into almost every area of spectral analysis and DSP system design. These three topics are related to each other. The use of orthogonal functions greatly simplifies the process of finding a least-squares fit of a linear function to a set of data. The Fourier series is an important example of a linear least-squares function, and the Fourier series is a series made up of orthogonal functions.

In this chapter, we provide a brief review of these ...
