Activity 1

In this lab we had to identify the complex Fourier series representation, and according to the first practical we had to understand that the period of the complex Fourier series of an impulse train will be given by

The Fourier series expansion of the impulse train will be given by with a period 1S will be given by

And then we were given to type a programme code in the matlab and to check the output result of the programme.

According to the activity one we had to change the N value, which stands for number of harmonics that we are taking to a count. As the output we were able to discover two figures where figure one plots all harmonics and in figure two we are taking the addition of all harmonics.

Activity 2
The complex Fourier co-efficient of a square with 50% duty cycle and amplitude 1 was given by

If we further simplify this we can show Cn could be changed to odd or even when n is changing. Cn= 0-when n is even 1-when n is odd We modified the above matlab programme to demonstrate the composition of square wave with its sinusoidal harmonics and we observed the plots for N=11,21,101,1001

Activity 3
In this activity we had to use a low pass filter for the above signal where the cutoff frequency 10 times of the fundamental frequency of the signal. When low pass filtering a signal the signals whose frequency is greater than the cut off will filtered. So to low pass the above signal we had to substitute the value of N with 9.and finally we get the signal. low pass filtered
