1.9 Fourier Integral

1.9 Fourier Integral

  • The representation of a periodic function with the same period was developed in Sections 1 and 2.
    • We obtained series representations for functions only on a finite interval.
    • Some changes suggest an answer.

  • We modify Eq.
    • now.

  • The foregoing derivation is not a proof.

  • The two examples show that one can't evaluate the integral in the representation.
    • The equality between a suitable function and its Fourier integral is stated in the preceding.

  • Section 1.5 for Fourier series contains rules for operations on Fourier integrals.

  • Find a rationale for saying that this function can be represented by its integral Fourier.
