Fourier Transform in Science offers 12 expert-authored chapters reviewing applications of the Fourier transform, with a particular emphasis on its diverse scientific applications. In the first part of the book, the Fourier transforms role in materials analysis is considered. Topics include spectroscopy of cotton and cotton refuse, and the pore structure characterization of active carbons. In the second part, further applications are explored through topics including computation of the lightning electromagnetic field, robust beamforming and DOA estimation, and error control coding. Finally, the scientific principles of Fourier transforms are closely examined in part three. Chapters cover topics including the Fourier transform of the absolute amplitude spectra, three-dimensional reconstruction strategy, Fourier transform on group-like structures, fast GPS signal acquisition, molecular level characterization of organic matter, and hyperspectral imaging based on the Fourier transform. The books contributors are well-known authorities and draw on varied experience to ensure that this book provides an excellent resources for researchers and scientists seeking practical inspiration, as well as for students and graduate students wishing to extend their understanding of the role of the Fourier transform in science.
