Here I will try to keep an updated account of what has been
done so far in the course.

what we did |
comments |
29/10 - 1/11 |
- We have mostly worked on Ch. 1 in Bergh: Notes on
generalized functions.
- definition and some properties of the Fourier transform
- the inversion formula
- the class S
- convolution and autocorrelation
- the tempered distributions, S' ,
differentiation, multiplication by functions, the Fourier transform.
- some examples: Dirac measure, the finite part of
x-3/2 H(x)
|
|
5/11 - 8/11 |
- We have finished Chapter 1 in Bergh
- Most of the relevant details in Bracewell: ch1 -ch10.
Some more about power spectra, and some inequalities related
to Fourier analysis remain.
|
|
12/11 |
- Rules for computing DFT
- The fast Fourier transform
|
|
14/11 |
- Cost of computing the FFT
- The uncertainty relation
- Fourier transforms and tempered distributions in higher
dimension.
- tensor products of tempered distributions
|
|
15/11 |
- Tensor products of tempered distributions
- Some formulas related to mulitdimensional fourier
transforms
- The Hankel transform (in 2 and more dimensions)
|
|
19/11 |
- A little about the assignement 1: How to experiment
with filters and audio signals from e.g. music.
- The Abel transform
- The Radon transform: its definition, and the inversion
theorem (without proof so far)
|
|
21-23 /11 |
- note that there only lectures this week.
- The Radon transform: proof of the inversion formula
- The Hilbert transform and the analytical signal
- The fourier transform of homogeneous distributions, and
in particular of (-z)-1/2
- The Uncertainty principle
- A little about probability theory: a proof of the
central limit theorem
- Tempered measures, positive measures and positive
definite distributions.
- Beginning of discrete filter theory: linear time invariant and
causal filters, FIR and IIR ...
