Fourier Series analysis of Quasi Square Wave
𝜔𝑡
• The periodic waveform can be written as, 𝑓(𝑡) = 𝑎0 + 𝑎𝑛 cos(𝑛 𝜔𝑡) + 𝑏𝑛 sin(𝑛 𝜔𝑡) where a0 =0.
• The waveform has odd symmetry (i.e., 𝑓(𝜔𝑡) = −𝑓(−𝜔𝑡)), thus 𝑎𝑛 = 0.
• It also has half wave symmetry (i.e., 𝑓(𝜔𝑡 + 𝜋) = −𝑓(𝜔𝑡)), thus only odd terms in bn is present.

• Hence, 𝑏𝑛 = 𝐼 sin(𝑛 𝜃)𝑑𝜃 = cos(𝑛 𝛼), n=odd.
