Attention:
QUESTIONS
1)
(a) Find the Fourier series of the function f (t)= 2 sin(t – π/3)
(b) Consider the Fourier series of the following square wave sq(t)
−1 − t −0
sq ( t ) =
1 0 t
sq ( t + 2 ) = f ( t )
In class we calculated its Fourier series. sq(t) has fundamental period 2π, but it is also a function
of 4π. Calculate the Fourier series of the sq(t) regarding the period of 4π. Compare your results
and the results calculated in the class.
(c) Considering the Fourier series for sq(t), compute the Fourier series of the each of the
following functions without evaluating any of the integrals for the Fourier coefficients. State
also the fundamental period of the functions.
(i) sq ( t − / 4 )
(ii) 1 + 2sq ( 2 t ) T
(iii) Plot the main function and its Fourier series using first five terms in the same
Figure in wxMaxima for Parts (i) and (ii).
(d) Find the Fourier series of the following function g(t). Hint: what is g (t ) in terms of the
Fourier Series for sq(t))
t − t
g (t ) =
2 2
− t 3
t
2 2
sq ( g + 2 ) = f ( t )

2) (a) Expand the function shown in Fig. 1 into a Fourier series in three ways:
(b) Plot the main function f(x) and its Fourier series expansion containing first 4 nonzero
terms obtained in the three ways. Comment on your results.

Sketch r(t) and y(t) in the same Figure using wxMaxima. (Hint: A similar system output is
calculted in class)
