1 The Fourier Transform of Discrete Time Sequences
Wehave found that x t, the analog signal sampled by a train of Dirac delta functions with
s
spacing T =1=f , had aFourier transform related to Ffxtg = X f by

This Fourier transform is p erio dic in f , with p erio d f , as is easily shown:

We de ned X f as b eing identical to X f . Since this function is p erio dic, it can be

represented by aFourier series, which led us to the inverse DTFT
