2.0-Fourier Theory and Communication Signals

The document discusses Fourier analysis and its applications in communication systems. It introduces: 1) The Fourier transform, which provides a mathematical tool for measuring the frequency content or spectrum of a signal. 2) Common Fourier transform pairs like the rectangular pulse and sinc pulse. 3) Properties of the Fourier transform including its use in analyzing periodic signals and Fourier transforms of linear time-invariant systems. 4) Key concepts in communication systems like ideal sampling, the Dirac delta function, frequency response of filters, and baseband versus passband signals.
