Abstract

The Fourier transform has been used extensively throughout the previous chapters of this book. Its role is essentially related to the simplicity of the input-output relationship for linear systems, which is a consequence of the convolution theorem. The use of the continuous Fourier transform, however, is restricted to the cases where it is known analytically, most of the time from tables.
