FFT-EM is an innovative method that represents a combination of FFT and EM techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The technique is often used to determine the interior and surface ...

The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is an implementation of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) using a divide-and-conquer approach. A DFT can transform any discrete signal, such as an image, to and ...

Every machine has its own way of communicating with its operator. Some send status emails, some illuminate, but most of them vibrate and make noise. If it hums happily, that’s usually a good sign, but ...

COFDM, the modulation method used by most terrestrial DTV standards, depends on implementation of the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) for demodulating the thousands of carriers used in OFDM system. An ...

In an earlier article, we discussed the basics of setting up a fast-Fourier transform (FFT) on an oscilloscope, and why you’d want to use an FFT to get a frequency-domain view of a time-domain signal ...

In January, four MIT researchers showed off a replacement for one of the most important algorithms in computer science. Dina Katabi, Haitham Hassanieh, Piotr Indyk, and Eric Price have created a ...

Many science and engineering applications require an accurate frequency spectrum or Fourier transform of a signal. The Fourier transform of a sequence of samples of a signal is shown in Equation 1.

Engineers targeting DSP to FPGAs have traditionally used fixed-point arithmetic, mainly because of the high cost associated with implementing floating-point arithmetic. That cost comes in the form of ...
