Fourier transforms are used everyday for solving single functions and combinations
of functions found in radar and signal processing. Still, many problems that could
have been solved by using Fourier transforms have gone unsolved because they require
integration that is too computationally difficult. Now you can solve those integration-intensive
problems with the new approach to carrying out Fourier transforms presented in
this book.
By building upon Woodward’s well known “Rules
and Pairs” method and related concepts and procedures, this book establishes
a unified system that makes implicit the integration required for performing
Fourier transforms on a wide variety of functions. It details how complex functions
can be broken down to their constituent parts for analysis. You can now concentrate
on functional relationships instead of getting bogged down in the details of
integration. This new approach to applying Fourier transforms is illustrated
with many specific examples from digital signal processing as well as radar
and antenna operation.
