ELE 301: Signals and Systems: Prof. Paul Cuff

This document summarizes key points from Lecture 5 of Prof. Cuff's ELE 301 Signals and Systems course at Princeton University in Fall 2011-12. The lecture covered: - A brief history of the Fourier series and its contributors like Euler, Fourier, and Dirichlet - An introduction to the Fourier series and how it represents periodic signals as sums of sinusoids - How linear time-invariant systems respond to exponential function inputs - Properties of the Fourier series like eigenfunctions, aliasing, and representation of periodic signals - Conditions for the convergence of Fourier series approximations

What is the Fourier Series

The Fourier Series allows us to represent periodic signals as sums of


sinusoids.
x(t) =

ak e jk2f0 t

k=

where f0 = 1/T0 and T0 is the fundamental period.

Response of LTI Systems to Exponential Functions


For an LTI system with impulse response h(t), output is the convolution of
input and impulse response:
Z
y (t) =
h( )x(t ) d

If the input is a complex exponential x(t) = e jt
