Waveforms that are their own Fourier Transform
Mea Culpa There are many scary things about writing a technical book. Can I make the concepts clear? It is worth the effort? Will it sell? But all of these pale compared to the biggest fear: What... posted by Steve Smith on Jan 16 2008 under Academia / Research

An Interesting Fourier Transform - 1/f Noise
Power law functions are common in science and engineering. A surprising property is that the Fourier transform of a power law is also a power law. But this is only the start- there are many interestin... posted by Steve Smith on Nov 23 2007 under Academia / Research
