DTFS of a DT pulse and e^(j4πn/7)x[n]
Short answer
x[n]=2 for |n|≤1 and 0 for 1<|n|≤3 with N=7. Its DTFS coefficients are a_k = (2/7) sin(3πk/7)/sin(πk/7) for k≠0, a0=6/7. For y[n]=e^{j4πn/7}x[n], frequency shifting gives b_k = a_{k-2}, moving the spectrum right by 2.
Find out Fourier series coefficients of a periodic discrete time signal described over a period as x[n] = 2 for |n| ≤ 1; 0 for 1 < |n| ≤ 3. Using the Fourier series coefficients calculated above, find the Fourier series coefficients of the signal e^(j4πn/7) x[n].
The signal is for and for . One period runs over to , so and .

Fourier series coefficients of x[n]
In closed form (the standard result for a DT rectangular pulse with ):
| k | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.857 | 0.642 | 0.159 | −0.229 | −0.229 | 0.159 | 0.642 |
The coefficients are real and even (), because is real and even. They repeat with period 7.
Coefficients of y[n] = e^{j4πn/7} x[n]
By the frequency shifting property, , so
| k | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.159 | 0.642 | 0.857 | 0.642 | 0.159 | −0.229 | −0.229 |
Answer: with , and . The spectrum is the same shape, moved 2 places to the right (peak at ).
