Home Technical Articles FTIR Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) is a powerful tool for identifying types of chemical bonds in a molecule by producing an infrared absorption spectrum that is like a molecular "fingerprint". FTIR - Introduction FTIR is most useful for identifying chemicals that are either organic or inorganic. It can be utilized to quantitate some components of an unknown mixture. It can be applied to the analysis of solids, liquids, and gasses. The term Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) refers to a fairly recent development in the manner in which the data is collected and converted from an interference pattern to a spectrum. Today's FTIR instruments are computerized which makes them faster and more sensitive than the older dispersive instruments. Qualitative Analysis FTIR can be used to identify chemicals from spills, paints, polymers, coatings, drugs, and contaminants. FTIR is perhaps the most powerful tool for identifying types of chemical bonds (functional groups). The wavelength of light absorbed is characteristic of the chemical bond as can be seen in this annotated spectrum. By interpreting the infrared absorption spectrum, the chemical bonds in a molecule can be determined. FTIR spectra of pure compounds are generally so unique that they are like a molecular "fingerprint". While organic compounds have very rich, detailed spectra, inorganic compounds are usually much simpler. For most common materials, the spectrum of an unknown can be identified by comparison to a library of known compounds. WCAS has several infrared spectral libraries including on-line computer libraries. To identify less common materials, IR will need to be combined with nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry, emission spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and/or other techniques.

David Mustard made many important contributions to the theory of the fractional Fourier transform which we have documented in our book. He was kind enough to send me his difficult to obtain publications and some elegantly handwritten notes, and to comment on substantial parts of our manuscript and answer our questions. I learned about his illness as we were trying to finish the manuscript. My only consolation is that he was able to see the book as it went to print before his death, as his wife later informed me. Despite our limited interaction, I will remember him for his helpfulness and kindness. I realized how little I knew about him when I came across by chance the above obituary in January 2005.

A Fourier Transform is a mathematical operation that transforms a signal from the time domain to the frequency domain , and vice versa. We are accustomed to time-domain signals in the real world. In the time domain, the signal is expressed with respect to time. In the frequency domain, a signal is expressed with respect to frequency. What is a DFT? What is an FFT? What's the difference? A DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform) is simply the name given to the Fourier Transform when it is applied to digital (discrete) rather than an analog (continuous) signal. An FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) is a faster version of the DFT that can be applied when the number of samples in the signal is a power of two. An FFT computation takes approximately N * log (N) operations, whereas a DFT takes approximately N operations, so the FFT is significantly faster.

On fractional Fourier transform moments Tatiana Alieva and Martin J. Bastiaans Based on the relation between the ambiguity function represented in a quasi-polar coordinate system and the fractional power spectra, the fractional Fourier transform moments are introduced. Important equalities for the global second-order fractional Fourier transform moments are derived and their applications for signal analysis are discussed. The connection between the local moments and the angle derivative of the fractional power spectra is established; this permits to solve the phase retrieval problem if only two close fractional power spectra are known.

Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) In this section we present several methods for computing the DFT efficiently. In view of the importance of the DFT in various digital signal processing applications, such as linear filtering, correlation analysis, and spectrum analysis, its efficient computation is a topic that has received considerable attention by many mathematicians, engineers, and applied scientists. From this point, we change the notation that X(k) , instead of y(k) in previous sections, represents the Fourier coefficients of x(n) X k N x n N , according to the formula In general, the data sequence x n ) is also assumed to be complex valued. Similarly, The IDFT becomes Since DFT and IDFT involve basically the same type of computations, our discussion of efficient computational algorithms for the DFT applies as well to the efficient computation of the IDFT. We observe that for each value of k , direct computation of X k ) involves N complex multiplications (4 N real multiplications) and N -1 complex additions (4 N -2 real additions). Consequently, to compute all N values of the DFT requires N complex multiplications and N N complex additions.

Discrete Fourier Transform and the FFT Introduction The Fourier Transform provides the means of transforming a signal defined in the time domain into one defined in the frequency domain (see Tutorial 2 on time and frequency representation). When a function is evaluated by numerical procedures, it is always necessary to sample it in some fashion (refer to Tutorial 3 on Sampling and Aliasing). This means that in order to fully evaluate a Fourier transform with digital operations , it is necessary that the time and frequency functions be sampled in some form or another. Thus the digital or Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) is of primary interest. The Fourier Transform The Fourier transform is used to transform a continuous time signal into the frequency domain. It describes the continuous spectrum of a nonperiodic time signal. The Fourier transform X (f) of a continuous time function x(t) can be expressed as The inverse transform is The Discrete Fourier Transform This is used in the case where both the time and the frequency variables are discrete (which they are if digital computers are being used to perform the analysis). Let x n T) represent the discrete time signal, and let X(

D F T (Discrete Fourier Transform) F F T (Fast Fourier Transform) Written by Paul Bourke June 1993 Introduction This document describes the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT), that is, a Fourier Transform as applied to a discrete complex valued series. The mathematics will be given and source code (written in the C programming language) is provided in the appendices. Theory Continuous For a continuous function of one variable f(t), the Fourier Transform F(f) will be defined as: and the inverse transform as where j is the square root of -1 and e denotes the natural exponent Discrete Consider a complex series x(k) with N samples of the form where x is a complex number Further, assume that that the series outside the range 0, N-1 is extended N-periodic, that is, x k = x k+N for all k. The FT of this series will be denoted X(k), it will also have N samples. The forward transform will be defined as The inverse transform will be defined as Of course although the functions here are described as complex series, real valued series can be represented by setting the imaginary part to 0. In general, the transform into the frequency domain will be a complex valued function, that is, with magnitude and phase. The following diagrams show the relationship between the series index and the frequency domain sample index. Note the functions here are only diagramatic, in general they are both complex valued series.

A periodic function Many of the phenomena studied in engineering and science are periodic in nature eg. the current and voltage in an alternating current circuit. These periodic functions can be analysed into their constituent components (fundamentals and harmonics) by a process called Fourier analysis We are aiming to find an approximation using trigonometric functions for various square, saw tooth, etc waveforms that occur in electronics. We do this by adding more and more trigonometric functions together. The sum of these special trigonometric functions is called the Fourier Series Jean Fourier Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier Fourier was a French mathematician, who was taught by Lagrange and Laplace He almost died on the guillotine in the French Revolution. Fourier was a buddy of Napoleon and worked as scientific adviser for Napoleon's army. He worked on theories of heat and expansions of functions as trigonometric series... but these were controversial at the time. Like many scientists, he had to battle to get his ideas accepted.
