Chapter 22. Fourier Transforms

An endeavor common to a wide variety of scientific and engineering disciplines is the need to analyze or process a signal from a data source. A signal can be characterized either in the time domain (amplitude versus time) or in the frequency domain (frequency magnitude versus frequency). Sometimes it may be more convenient to work in the time domain, sometimes in the frequency domain, and there are times when you will want to switch back and forth between the two domains.

A Fourier transform is a way of switching between time and frequency domains. It is based on the theory that a signal can be decomposed into an infinite series of sinusoidal functions. The sinusoidal functions can identify the frequencies and amplitudes ...

Julian F.

Head of Cybersecurity

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Addison B.

Field Engineer

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Amir M.

Data Platform Tech Lead

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
