Practice Question 1, ECE438 Fall 2010, Prof. Boutin

On Computing the DFT of a discrete-time periodic signal


Compute the discrete Fourier transform of the discrete-time signal

$ x[n]= e^{-j \frac{2}{3} \pi n} $.

How does your answer related to the Fourier series coefficients of x[n]?


Post Your answer/questions below.

$ X [k] = \sum_{k=0}^{N-1} x[n].e^{-j.2\pi k n/N} $

$ N=3 $ That's correct! -pm

$ x[n]= e^{-j \frac{2}{3} \pi n} $

$ X [k] = \sum_{k=0}^{2}e^{-j(n)(\frac{2}{3}\pi)(1+k)} $ You are using the long route, instead of the short route. -pm

$ X [k] = 1+ e^{-j(1)(\frac{2}{3}\pi)(1+k)} +e^{-j\frac{4}{3}\pi(1+k)} $ This gives you a very complicated answer. -pm

?- AJFunche Nice effort! -pm
