Exp-2 Discrete Fourier Transform

This practical really helped me understand DFT in a greater depth. It helped me connect the knowledge sir taught in the class, and aquire a greater understanding. In  mathematics , the  discrete Fourier transform  ( DFT ) converts a finite sequence of equally-spaced  samples  of a  function  into a same-length sequence of equally-spaced samples of the  discrete-time Fourier transform  (DTFT), which is a  complex-valued  function of frequency. The interval at which the DTFT is sampled is the reciprocal of the duration of the input sequence. To understand DFT better, we've performed discrete Fourier transform of a 4 point sequence by coding it. What I learned in that experiment is: 1) Results by DFT are always periodic about the number of input values. 2)The spectrum is discrete from o to pi. 3)Upon zero-padding the input signal, the length of the input signal increased- which increases the frequency spacing. 4)As frequ...
