What is sinc function and sampling function?
The sinc function , also called the "sampling function," is a function that arises frequently in signal processing and the theory of Fourier transforms. The full name of the function is "sine cardinal," but it is commonly referred to by its abbreviation, "sinc." There are two definitions in common use.
What is meant by DTFT?
The discrete time Fourier transform (DTFT) is the member of the Fourier transform family that operates on aperiodic, discrete signals. The best way to understand the DTFT is how it relates to the DFT. To start, imagine that you acquire an N sample signal, and want to find its frequency spectrum.
What is DTFT in DSP?
The Discrete-Time Fourier Transform (DTFT) is the cornerstone of all DSP, because it tells us that from a discrete set of samples of a continuous function, we can create a periodic summation of that function's Fourier transform.
What is the Fourier transform of sinc function?
The Fourier transform of the sinc function is a rectangle centered on ω = 0. This gives sinc(x) a special place in the realm of signal processing, because a rectangular shape in the frequency domain is the idealized “brick-wall” filter response.
