Discrete-time Fourier Transform - Inverse Transform

Inverse Transform

An operation that recovers the discrete data sequence from the DTFT function is called an inverse DTFT. For instance, the inverse continuous Fourier transform of both sides of Eq.2 produces the sequence in the form of a modulated Dirac comb function:

\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} x\cdot \delta(t-n T) = \mathcal{F}^{-1}\left \{X_{1/T}(f)\right\} \ \stackrel{\mathrm{def}}{=} \int_{-\infty}^\infty X_{1/T}(f)\cdot e^{i 2 \pi f t} df.

However, noting that is periodic, all the necessary information is contained within any interval of length 1/T. In both Eq.1 and Eq.2, the summations over n are a Fourier series, with coefficients x. The standard formulas for the Fourier coefficients are also the inverse transforms:

\begin{align} x &= T \int_{\frac{1}{T}} X_{1/T}(f)\cdot e^{i 2 \pi f nT} df \quad \scriptstyle {(integral\ over\ any\ interval\ of\ length\ 1/T)} \\ \displaystyle &= \frac{1}{2 \pi}\int_{2\pi} X(\omega)\cdot e^{i \omega n} d\omega. \quad \scriptstyle {(integral\ over\ any\ interval\ of\ length\ 2\pi)} \end{align}

Famous quotes containing the words inverse and/or transform:

    “The quality of moral behaviour varies in inverse ratio to the number of human beings involved.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “It is necessary to turn political crisis into armed crisis by performing violent actions that will force those in power to transform the military situation into a political situation. That will alienate the masses, who, from then on, will revolt against the army and the police and blame them for this state of things.”
    —Carlos Marighella (d. 1969)
