The formula for expanding a real-valued two-dimensional function G(x,y) in terms of
basis functions cos
and sin
can be readily recovered from
Eqs. (120) and (119). For notation ease, define
![]() | (121) |
Then Eq. (120) is written as
![∑∞ ∞∑
G(x,y) = cmn [cosα + isinα ]
m= −∞ n= −∞ ( )
∑∞ ∞∑ ---1--∫ Ly ∫ Lx
= 4LxLy − Ly −Lx G (x,y)cos αdxdy [cosα + isinα]
m= −∞ n= −∞ ( ∫ ∫ )
∑∞ ∞∑ ---1-- Ly Lx
+ 4LxLy − Ly −Lx G (x,y)sinαdxdy [− icosα + sin α],
m= −∞ n= −∞](fourier_analysis134x.png)
![]() | (124) |
and the other coefficients given by
![]() | (125) |
![]() | (126) |
Here the range of m is reduced to [0 : +∞]. In this case, we have an edge case, G00c, that needs special treatment. We see that allowing the index runing from −∞ to +∞ has the advantage of that there are no edge cases that needs special treatment.
