"## The Fourier transformation\n",
"\n",
"In the world of seismology, we use the *Fourier transformation* to transform a signal from the time domain into the frequency domain. That means, we split up the signal and separate the content of each frequency from each other. Doing so, we can analyse our signal according to energy content per frequency. We can extract information on how much amplitude each frequency contributes to the final signal. In other words: we get a receipt of the ingredients we need to blend our measured signal. "

"#### Answers to the questions\n",
"\n",
"1) No, you do not always see the same function. This is because the function is set up with random numbers for the weighting factors $a_k$ and $b_k$. When we re-construct a function using the Fourier series, we not only need the basis functions $\\sin$ and $\\cos$ but also the weighting factors. They are as important as the basis functions and give us information on how much content/amplitude the basis functions for the single summands contribute to the final Fourier sum. \n",
"\n",
"2) The reconstructed signal (green) is not very similar to the original one (red) and has a longer period. Obviously, the original function is quite complex and cannot be described with only a handful of *Fourier series* coefficients. \n",
"3) The similarity between original and reconstructed signals increase. The general shape slowly, slowly converges to the original form. Therefore, the more coefficients are used, the better we can reconstruct the original function. This behaviour is called _convergence_. \n",
"4) When using only very few coefficients to reconstruct the signal, the absolute amplitudes are very different. When using more coefficients, in the middle part the amplitudes become more similar. This is because the total energy is \"spread\" over more coefficients. \n",
"Only at the beginning and at the end of the signals are there still large differences in the amplitudes. We can reason this phenomenon with the properties of the *Fourier series*. Per definition, the *Fourier series* (and therefore also the *Fourier transformation*) assumes signals have infinite length. Because we are working with a signal of finite length, we obtain \"edge phenomena\". They can be problematic (as seen in the section \"convergence + Gibb's phenomenon\" of this notebook) and have to be considered carefully. \n",
"\n",
"5) The reconstructed function follows the general shape of the original wave but is not really square. It also shows unwanted undulations. \n",
"6) The more coefficients are used, the better the square shape can be reconstructed. However, the undulations now concentrate at the edges and get more distinct. This is called the *Gibb's phenomenon* and can be explained with the convergence properties of the *Fourier series*. The *Fourier series* converges pointwise, i.e. the signal needs to be continuous. In case of discontinuities, the lines are taken as average from the sample before and after the discontinuity. This we see as undulations. \n",
"\n",
"7) The *Fourier transformation* assumes an infinite signal. Because this is not the case, the FFT annex the signal or rather wrap it around. Thus, the end of the signal is connected with its beginning. Because the last sample has a different amplitude than the first sample, we artificially introduce a discontinuity which leads to the Gibb's phenomenon. To avoid this trap, we bring the first and the last sample to the same amplitude by tapering. By convenience, we choose zero as the common amplitude. \n",
"8) The peaks at the different frequencies give us the amount of amplitude this frequency contributes to the final signal. We can easily see which frequencies are included and which not. \n",
"9) This answer cannot be given in an absolute way because the signal in cell 3 is made with random weighting factors and therefore the answer changes each time the cell is executed. Relatively speaking, these are the frequencies with the highest peaks/amplitudes."
