Fourier Analysis
Putting any function in the form of the summation of its
trigonometric components (Sinusoidal functions).
The special case is when the function is itself a periodic function.
Then the Fourier series is used to transform it to a summation of
infinity number of sines and cosines.
The more general case is when the function is not periodic, then the
Fourier transform is the way to analyze it to its sinusoidal
constituents

Trigonometric identities
Using the relations between the
trigonometric functions, the
representation of the periodic
functions can be simplified to:
f t A0 An cos nt Bn sin nt

can be written as
f t A0 Cn cos( nt )

One important application based on this phenomenon is mixing the high frequency
from broadcast stations with a local oscillator signal that have a close frequency signal.
The output will contain a high and low frequency components. By filtering the high
frequency component, the lower frequency signal that is easier in dealing with can be
used to extract data.

FT of common function
Sine wave is represented by a impulse in the frequency domain at its own frequency
FT of common function
An impulse is represented by a constant value over all the frequency range (real part is a cosine, imaginary one
a sine)
FT of common function
Rectangular windows are represented by a sinc wave in the frequency domain (this
explains a lot in frequency analysis)
