Hartley Transform - Relation To Fourier Transform

Relation To Fourier Transform

This transform differs from the classic Fourier transform in the choice of the kernel. In the Fourier transform, we have the exponential kernel: where i is the imaginary unit.

The two transforms are closely related, however, and the Fourier transform (assuming it uses the same normalization convention) can be computed from the Hartley transform via:

That is, the real and imaginary parts of the Fourier transform are simply given by the even and odd parts of the Hartley transform, respectively.

Conversely, for real-valued functions f(t), the Hartley transform is given from the Fourier transform's real and imaginary parts:

where and denote the real and imaginary parts of the complex Fourier transform.

Famous quotes containing the words relation to, relation and/or transform:

    Any relation to the land, the habit of tilling it, or mining it, or even hunting on it, generates the feeling of patriotism. He who keeps shop on it, or he who merely uses it as a support to his desk and ledger, or to his manufactory, values it less.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    You must realize that I was suffering from love and I knew him as intimately as I knew my own image in a mirror. In other words, I knew him only in relation to myself.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    Bees plunder the flowers here and there, but afterward they make of them honey, which is all theirs; it is no longer thyme or marjoram. Even so with the pieces borrowed from others; one will transform and blend them to make a work that is all one’s own, that is, one’s judgement. Education, work, and study aim only at forming this.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
