DFT-FFT


This experiment was based on developing a program to perform FFT and DFT of a N point signal on CCS.  DFT is one of the most powerful tools in digital signal processing; it enables us to find the spectrum of a finite-duration signal x(n). We observed that as the length of input signal increases frequency spacing and error decreases and resolution increases.  FFT is an algorithm that samples a signal over a period of time and divides it into its frequency components.FFT is a simpler and faster method. This is very useful when the value of N is large.

  1. On paper FFT is slower than DFT cz it has got a lot of steps!

  2. FFT works really fast on a normal DSP.

  3. Zero padding improves the spectrum. It does not provide any additional information about the spectrum.

  4. The DFT is also used to efficiently solve partial differential equations, and to perform other operations such as convolutions or multiplying large integers.

  5. Amount of information after DFT remains same if the signal is appended with zeros.
