Relation To Fourier Transform
This transform differs from the classic Fourier transform in the choice of the kernel. In the Fourier transform, we have the exponential kernel: where i is the imaginary unit.
The two transforms are closely related, however, and the Fourier transform (assuming it uses the same normalization convention) can be computed from the Hartley transform via:
That is, the real and imaginary parts of the Fourier transform are simply given by the even and odd parts of the Hartley transform, respectively.
Conversely, for real-valued functions f(t), the Hartley transform is given from the Fourier transform's real and imaginary parts:
where and denote the real and imaginary parts of the complex Fourier transform.

Famous quotes containing the words relation to, relation and/or transform:
“Light is meaningful only in relation to darkness, and truth presupposes error. It is these mingled opposites which people our life, which make it pungent, intoxicating. We only exist in terms of this conflict, in the zone where black and white clash.”
—Louis Aragon (1897–1982)
“Every word was once a poem. Every new relation is a new word.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The lullaby is the spell whereby the mother attempts to transform herself back from an ogre to a saint.”
—James Fenton (b. 1949)
