Chris@19 60 <p><a name="index-discrete-Fourier-transform-295"></a><a name="index-DFT-296"></a>The forward (<code>FFTW_FORWARD</code>) discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of a
Chris@19 61 1d complex array X of size n computes an array Y,
Chris@19 62 where:
Chris@19 63 <center><img src="equation-dft.png" align="top">.</center>The backward (<code>FFTW_BACKWARD</code>) DFT computes:
Chris@19 64 <center><img src="equation-idft.png" align="top">.</center>
Chris@19 65
Chris@19 66 <p><a name="index-normalization-297"></a>FFTW computes an unnormalized transform, in that there is no coefficient
Chris@19 67 in front of the summation in the DFT. In other words, applying the
Chris@19 68 forward and then the backward transform will multiply the input by
Chris@19 69 n.
Chris@19 70
Chris@19 71 <p><a name="index-frequency-298"></a>From above, an <code>FFTW_FORWARD</code> transform corresponds to a sign of
Chris@19 72 -1 in the exponent of the DFT. Note also that we use the
Chris@19 73 standard &ldquo;in-order&rdquo; output ordering&mdash;the k-th output
Chris@19 74 corresponds to the frequency k/n (or k/T, where T
Chris@19 75 is your total sampling period). For those who like to think in terms of
Chris@19 76 positive and negative frequencies, this means that the positive
Chris@19 77 frequencies are stored in the first half of the output and the negative
Chris@19 78 frequencies are stored in backwards order in the second half of the
Chris@19 79 output. (The frequency -k/n is the same as the frequency
Chris@19 80 (n-k)/n.)
