Time domain vs. Frequency Domain
Most of the time, it is more convenient to represent signals in the
frequency domain, such in the case of the following example.

Fourier Transform
Example
a) Calculate the 4-point DFT X₁(k) of x₁(n) = {1, 1, 0, 0} for k = 0,1,2,3.
b) Calculate the 4-point DFT X₂(k) of x₂(n) = {1, 0, 0, 1} for k = 0,1,2,3.
c) Calculate the magnitudes of |X₁(k)| and |X₂(k)| for k = 0,1,2,3.
d) Are |X₁(k)| different from |X₂(k)|? Why?

Discrete Fourier Transform
• Calculate the magnitudes of |X₁(k)| and |X₂(k)| for k = 0,1,2,3
|X₁(k)|: |X₂(k)|
X(0)=2 X(0)=2
X(1)=1-j=1.414 [-45°] X(1)=1+j=1.414 [45°]
X(2)=0 X(2)=0
X(3)=1+j=1.414 [45°] X(3)=1-j=1.414 [-45°]
Discrete Fourier Transform
• Are |X₁(k)| different from |X₂(k)|? Why?
¡ similar in real magnitude but different in
phase
