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 necessary has never been man’s top priority. The passionate pursuit of the nonessential and the extravagant is one of the chief traits of human uniqueness. Unlike other forms of life, man’s greatest exertions are made in the pursuit not of necessities but of superfluities.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    The highest perfection of politeness is only a beautiful edifice, built, from the base to the dome, of ungraceful and gilded forms of charitable and unselfish lying.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    A nation fights well in proportion to the amount of men and materials it has. And the other equation is that the individual soldier in that army is a more effective soldier the poorer his standard of living has been in the past.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
