The signal

The signal I chose to use is as follows:


$ x(t) = 4cos(2t) + (3j)sin(3t)\! $


The fundamental period, denoted as $ T\! $, of this signal is $ 2\pi\! $. The fundamental frequency, denoted $ \omega_0\! $, is defined as:


$ \omega_0 = \frac{T}{2\pi}\! $


The value of this is $ \frac{2\pi}{2\pi}\! $, which coincidently, by no planning of mine, turns out to be $ 1\! $.


Solution

We know that the equation for signal coefficients is as follows:


$ a_k=\frac{1}{T}\int_0^Tx(t)e^{-jk\omega_0t}dt $.


And the equation for fourier series of a function is as follows:


$ x(t)=\sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty}a_ke^{jk\omega_0t} $


We first put our signal into the first equation, and we get this monster:


$ a_0=\frac{1}{2\pi}\int_0^{2\pi}[4cos(2t) + (3j)sin(3t)]e^{0}dt $


We now solve.


$ a_0=\frac{2}{\pi}\int_0^{2\pi}cos(2t)dt+\frac{3j}{2\pi}\int_0^{2\pi}sin(3t)dt $


$ a_0=\frac{1}{\pi}[sin(2t)]_0^{2\pi}-\frac{j}{2\pi}[cos(3t)]_0^{2\pi} $


$ a_0=\frac{1}{\pi}[sin(4\pi)-sin(0)]+\frac{j}{2\pi}[(cos(6\pi)-cos(0)] $


$ a_0=\frac{1}{\pi}[0]+\frac{j}{2\pi}[0] $
