BandlimitingBandlimiting refers to a process which reduces the energy of a signal to an acceptably low level outside of a desired frequency range. Bandlimiting is an essential part of many applications in signal processing and communications. Examples include controlling interference between radio frequency communications signals, and managing aliasing distortion associated with sampling for digital signal processing. A bandlimited signal is, strictly speaking, a signal with zero energy outside of a defined frequency range.
Digital signal processingDigital signal processing (DSP) is the use of digital processing, such as by computers or more specialized digital signal processors, to perform a wide variety of signal processing operations. The digital signals processed in this manner are a sequence of numbers that represent samples of a continuous variable in a domain such as time, space, or frequency. In digital electronics, a digital signal is represented as a pulse train, which is typically generated by the switching of a transistor.
Convergence of Fourier seriesIn mathematics, the question of whether the Fourier series of a periodic function converges to a given function is researched by a field known as classical harmonic analysis, a branch of pure mathematics. Convergence is not necessarily given in the general case, and certain criteria must be met for convergence to occur. Determination of convergence requires the comprehension of pointwise convergence, uniform convergence, absolute convergence, Lp spaces, summability methods and the Cesàro mean.
