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:

    How superbly brave is the Englishman in the presence of the awfulest forms of danger & death; & how abject in the presence of any & all forms of hereditary rank.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    That food has always been, and will continue to be, the basis for one of our greater snobbisms does not explain the fact that the attitude toward the food choice of others is becoming more and more heatedly exclusive until it may well turn into one of those forms of bigotry against which gallant little committees are constantly planning campaigns in the cause of justice and decency.
    Cornelia Otis Skinner (1901–1979)

    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)
