Poisson Summation Formula - Forms of The Equation

Forms of The Equation

For appropriate functions the Poisson summation formula may be stated as:

where is the Fourier transform of ; that is

(Eq.1)


With the substitution, and the Fourier transform property, (for P > 0), Eq.1 becomes:

(Stein & Weiss 1971).

(Eq.2)


With another definition, and the transform property Eq.2 becomes a periodic summation (with period P) and its equivalent Fourier series:

(Pinsky 2002; Zygmund 1968).

(Eq.3)

Similarly, the periodic summation of a function's Fourier transform has this Fourier series equivalent:

(Eq.4)

where T represents the time interval at which a function s(t) is sampled, and 1/T is the rate of samples/sec.

Famous quotes containing the words forms of, forms and/or equation:

    The most passionate, consistent, extreme and implacable enemy of the Enlightenment and ... all forms of rationalism ... was Johann Georg Hamann. His influence, direct and indirect, upon the romantic revolt against universalism and scientific method ... was considerable and perhaps crucial.
    Isaiah Berlin (b. 1909)

    Three forms I see on stretchers lying, brought out there untended
    lying,
    Over each the blanket spread, ample brownish woolen blanket,
    Gray and heavy blanket, folding, covering all.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Jail sentences have many functions, but one is surely to send a message about what our society abhors and what it values. This week, the equation was twofold: female infidelity twice as bad as male abuse, the life of a woman half as valuable as that of a man. The killing of the woman taken in adultery has a long history and survives today in many cultures. One of those is our own.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
