When x is nonscalar, sinc is an elementwise operation see run matlab functions on a gpu parallel computing toolbox and gpu support by release parallel computing toolbox for details on gpuarray objects. Because you want to interpolate between your data point, you should be sure that the interpolation function f of the other data points is zero at the current data point.
The fourier transform of the triangle function is the sinc function squared. This analytic expression corresponds to the continuous inverse fourier transform of a rectangular pulse of width 2. However, the definition of the matlab sinc function is slightly different than the one used in class and on the fourier transform table. In either case, the value at x 0 is defined to be the.

This article is part of the book wireless communication systems in matlab, isbn. The rectangular function is an idealized lowpass filter, and the sinc function is the noncausal impulse response of such a filter. Viewed as a function of time, or space, the sinc function is the inverse fourier transform of the rectangular pulse in frequency centered at zero, with width. So you are needlessly destroying a bit of information that might actually be useful to somebody. The duality property is quite useful but sometimes a bit hard to understand. Perform ideal bandlimited interpolation of a random signal sampled at integer spacings. Choose a web site to get translated content where available and see local events and offers.
Viewed as a function of time, or space, the sinc function is the inverse fourier transform of the rectangular pulse in frequency centered at zero, with width 2. This is a very desirable property in a pulse, as it helps to avoid intersymbol interference, a major cause of degradation in digital transmission systems. Fourier transform of sinc squared function is explained in this video. The sinc function is widely used in optics and in signal processing, a field which includes sound recording and radio transmission. Assume that the signal to interpolate, x, is 0 outside of the given time interval and has been sampled at the nyquist frequency. View forum posts private message view blog entries view articles.
The fourier transform of a sinc is a rectangular pulse. The problem asks that i use the sinxx function and produce a table of values for the function on a user entered interval. From earlier parts, we know that sinc2200t has the higher bandwidth equal to 200 hz. Polynomial function and derivative approximation of sinc. To use pdf, specify the probability distribution name and its parameters. Statistics and machine learning toolbox also offers the generic function pdf, which supports various probability distributions. The sinc function is the continuous inverse fourier transform of the.
