Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)

Open table with initial data and use Analysis → Fast Fourier Transform menu item to perform FFT.

Formulas

MagicPlot uses 'electrical engineering' convention to set the sign of the exponential phase factor of FFT. 1)

Here c_n is signal components and C_n spectrum components, n = 1…N.

Normalize
Check Box
Forward Transform Inverse Transform
Unchecked C_n = sum{k=1}{N}{c_k e^{−2 pi i k n {/} N}} c_n = 1/N sum{k=1}{N}{C_k e^{2 pi i k n {/} N}}
Checked C_n = 1/N sum{k=1}{N}{c_k e^{−2 pi i k n {/} N}} c_n = sum{k=1}{N}{C_k e^{2 pi i k n {/} N}}
1)
Most scientific applications uses the same sign conventions. But note, that the sign of exponential phase factor in Numerical Receipts in C, 2nd edition, p. 503 is the opposite
