Definition
The discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT) of a discrete set of real or complex numbers x[n] with n=all integers, is a Fourier series, which produces a periodic function of a frequency variable. With w has units of radians/sample, the Fourier series is: \mathcal{X}_1(\omega) & = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}x[n]*e^{-j\omega n} </math>
