> Notice that, even if their formulas look quite similar, the Fourier series is not a particular case of the Fourier transform. For example, a periodic function is never integrable over the real line unless it is identically zero. Thus, you cannot compute the Fourier transform of a periodic function. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I do think the latter does generalize the former. I vaguely remember seeing it derived as essentially linking +/- infinity so the function is "periodic" on the real line. But I could be misremembering This is the class I took, it's incredible: https://see.stanford.edu/Course/EE261/137 |
