A guided tour of the fast Fourier transform

Bergland, G. D.·1969·IEEE Spectrum

Abstract

For some time the Fourier transform has served as a bridge between the time domain and the frequency domain. It is now possible to go back and forth between waveform and spectrum with enough speed and economy to create a whole new range of applications for this classic mathematical device. This article is intended as a primer on the fast Fourier transform, which has revolutionized the digital processing of waveforms. The reader's attention is especially directed to the IEEE Transactions on Audio and Electroacoustics for June 1969, a special issue devoted to the fast Fourier transform.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
