- I suggest putting a link next to each formula explaining how to obtain it from the formula in terms of $ \omega $. Also, I would not use the "mathcal" (curly) font for the transform variable, just a capital letter instead. --Mboutin 08:52, 3 September 2010 (UTC).
- Fixed the X(f) notation -Sbiddand
- The explanation for each formula still needs to be added! In particular, some students said it was not clear how to get the convolution property in terms of f. So this needs to be explained clearly. --Mboutin 09:04, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
