Introduction to Fourier Series The Fourier Series breaks down a periodic function into the sum of sinusoidal functions. It is the Fourier Transform for periodic functions. To start the analysis of Fourier Series‚ let’s define periodic functions. A function is periodic‚ with fundamental period T‚ if the following is true for all t: f(t+T)=f(t) [Equation 1] In plain English‚ this means that the a function of time with period T will have the same value in T seconds as it does now‚ no matter
