Hi, We can very well represent brickwall filter in FFT domain. Also we know that IFFT of brickwall will look like sin(x)/x function extending towards +/- infinity. How to derive this using IFFT equation?? Regards Bharat Pathak Arithos Designs www.Arithos.com

The Inverse Fourier Transform of a perfect lowpass will look like sinx/x with infinite extent. Fred

Instead of using sinx/x as our start point. Will using periodic dirichlet, be better? Also in this case will the Gibbs oscillations completely disappear, thus not needing any windowing approach. I am just thinking loud.......or am I just moving in circles?? Regards Bharat

But this isn't precisely true for a finite length IFFT of sampled data containing a rectangle. What you have instead is the sum of two Dirichlet (periodic Sinc) functions.> How to derive this using IFFT equation??...thus you can't. What you can do is to take the definite integral of complex exponentials of unit magnitude, which constitute the basis functions of the FT. IMHO. YMMV. -- rhn A.T nicholson d.0.t C-o-M

Thus the difference is negligible compared to the effects of any window applied.> Also in this case will the Gibbs oscillations completely disappear, > thus not needing any windowing approach.Also, the un-windowed Dirichlet has more high frequency content than the Sinc, so it might be even more likely to contribute to sharp transients in the other domain.

The only place I have attempted to do that stuff is in a non-compulsary (for EE students) class on complex maths. If you have the 4th edition of the Proakis & Manolakis book, check out ch. 3.1.2, particuarly eq.3.1.13 to see what you are up against. Rune

Could use L'Hospitals rule or just use obvious result of N for ALPHA=1. Rest of ALPHA (not 0, not 1) is OK if N finite. Kamar Ruptan DSP Guru
