What is the fundamental theorem of Fourier analysis?

  1. Any periodic function can be represented as a sum of sine and cosine functions.

  2. Any function can be represented as a sum of exponential functions.

  3. Any function can be represented as a sum of complex exponentials.

  4. Any function can be represented as a sum of sine and cosine functions with different frequencies.

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The fundamental theorem of Fourier analysis states that any function can be represented as a sum of complex exponentials, which are also known as Fourier components.

What is the Fourier series of a function?

  1. A representation of a periodic function as a sum of sine and cosine functions.

  2. A representation of a function as a sum of exponential functions.

  3. A representation of a function as a sum of complex exponentials.

  4. A representation of a function as a sum of sine and cosine functions with different frequencies.

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The Fourier series of a periodic function is a representation of that function as a sum of sine and cosine functions, with frequencies that are multiples of the fundamental frequency of the function.

What is the Fourier transform of a function?

  1. A representation of a function as a sum of sine and cosine functions.

  2. A representation of a function as a sum of exponential functions.

  3. A representation of a function as a sum of complex exponentials.

  4. A representation of a function as a sum of sine and cosine functions with different frequencies.

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The Fourier transform of a function is a representation of that function as a sum of complex exponentials, with frequencies that range from negative infinity to positive infinity.

What is the relationship between the Fourier series and the Fourier transform?

  1. The Fourier series is a special case of the Fourier transform.

  2. The Fourier transform is a generalization of the Fourier series.

  3. The Fourier series and the Fourier transform are unrelated.

  4. The Fourier series and the Fourier transform are equivalent.

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The Fourier transform is a generalization of the Fourier series in the sense that it can be used to represent both periodic and non-periodic functions, while the Fourier series can only be used to represent periodic functions.

What are some of the applications of Fourier analysis?

  1. Signal processing

  2. Image processing

  3. Linear systems analysis

  4. All of the above

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Fourier analysis has a wide range of applications, including signal processing, image processing, linear systems analysis, and many others.
