@geo. To show an example of why there's so much confusion regarding "DFT periodicity", below is a paragraph from a famous college DSP textbook:Think, now, of what the book is saying. It's saying we can...

I believe I answered your original 'DFT versus DTFT' question. I see from your Comment following Matt L's Answer that you are contemplating a DFT topic that is commonly misunderstood. An input sequence...

The DFT is an orthogonal matrix transform of a finite vector of data. The DTFT is the transform of potentially an infinite span of data or a function with infinite support.If you have a function with...

I think that your misunderstanding comes from the fact that you assume that $f[n]$ is periodic. If $f[n]$ were periodic then its DTFT would be a Dirac comb. What is happening here is that you want to...

All your algebra is for infinite-length sequences, and you cannot compute a DFT of an infinite-length sequence. So let's talk about finite-length sequences. Please realize that the DTFT of a...

I am trying to understand the connection between FT, DTFT and ultimately the DFT. But I am failing to link the DTFT to the DFT.This is how far I am getting: Say I have a function $f(t)$, and its...
