They are often the key to understanding how the FT can be used in a given
application.
So even though these results may at first seem like just boring math they are
important tools that let signal processing engineers understand how to build
things like cell phones, radars, mp3 processing, etc.
Here we will only cover the most important properties.
See the available table for the complete list of properties!
In this note set we simply learn these most-important properties in the next note
set well see how to use them.

If
x (t ) X ( ) then
x (t c ) X ( )e jc
That means that a shift doesnt change how much we need of each of
the sinusoids we build with

Second it does change the phase of the FT: { X ( )e

Phase shift increases linearly
as the frequency increases
