An expansion of a periodic function as a series of trigonometric functions. Thus,
where a0, a1, b1, b2, etc., are constants, called Fourier coefficients. The series is used in Fourier analysis.
The infinite series 12a0+∑n=1∞(ancos(nπx/L)+bnsin(nπx/L)), where an and bn are the Fourier coefficients. The Fourier series defines a function of period 2L; the convergence of the series and the magnitude of the Fourier coefficients are highly related to the order of differentiability of the function f. Fourier series are used to decompose a waveform into component waves of different frequencies and amplitudes, allowing identification of different sources from background or random noise in a signal. Fourier series are also widely used in the solution of partial differential equations.
If f is an integrable function on (−π, π) then the Fourier series for f iswhere
where a0, a1, b1, b2, etc., are constants, called Fourier coefficients. The series was first formulated by Joseph Fourier and is used in Fourier analysis.
