Fourier Series Analysis
16.0 Introduction
Many electrical waveforms are period but not sinusoidal. For analysis purposes,
such waveform can be represented in series form based on the original work of
Jean Baptise Joseph Fourier.
The application of Fourier-series method includes signal generators, power
supplies, and communication circuits. Fourier series decomposes non-sinusoidal
waveform into series of sinusoidal components of various frequencies. With this
property, frequency-domain representation or spectrum for periodic waveform is
developed. The spectral concept ties the relationship between time-domain and
frequency-domain properties of waveform. In this chapter, we shall the various
methods to generate Fourier series and the application of Fourier series in ac
steady-state circuit analysis.
16.1 Fourier Series
The period waveform of function f(t) is repetition over time such that
f(t-mT) = f(t) m = 1, 2, 3, …..
(16.1)
where T is the period. When m = 1, mT becomes T, which is the smallest T and it
is termed as fundamental period.
Theoretically equation (16.1) is true for value of t ranges from - ∞ to ∞. But
in practice, the waveform lasts only for a finite amount time. The assumption can
be true if the period T is small as compared with duration of repeating waveform.
The net area under a periodic waveform f(t) over any period is independent of
where the period begins. Thus, the integration of the f(t) over at any begin point is
equal.

16.2 Trigonometric Fourier Series
Fourier series state that almost any periodic waveform f(t) with fundamental
frequency ω can be expanded as an infinite series in the form
∞
f(t) = a0 + ∑ (a n cos nωt + b n sin nωt )
(16.3)
n =1
Equation (16.3) is called the trigonometric Fourier series and the constant C0, an,
and bn are dependent on f(t). All the oscillatory components are integer multiple of
fundamental angular frequency ω or harmonics. Fourier series can also be
expressed in exponential form, in which we will deal with later.
By including an infinite number of harmonics, Fourier series can represent
any “well-behaved” period function. This well-behaved periodic function is
defined by Dirichlet’s condition, which states the function must be single-valued,
must have a finite number of maxima, minima, and discontinuities per period and
the integral ∫T | f ( t ) | dt must be finite. Put in another word. When Dirichlet’s
condition hold, the infinite series summation converges to the value of f(t)
wherever the waveform is continuous.
The infinite series has orthogonal property meaning that that the integral over
one period of the product of any two different terms vanishes. Thus,
∫ cos(nωt )dt = ∫ sin (nωt )dt = 0 , ∫ cos(nωt ) ⋅ sin(mωt )dt = 0 , ∫ cos(nωt ) ⋅ cos(mωt )dt = 0 for n ≠

Alternative form of equation (16.3) is the amplitude-phase form, which is
∞
f(t) = a0 + ∑ (A n cos nωt + φ n )

Knowing that cos(α+β) = cosαcosβ-sinαsinβ, equation (16.10) shall become

f(t) = a0 + ∑ (A n cos φ n cos nωt ) − ∑ (A n sin φ n sin nωt )

Equating the coefficient of equation (16.3) and (16.11), it gives rise to an =
A n cos φ n and bn = − A n sin φ n . This shall also mean that A n = a 2n + b 2n and
b 
φ n = − tan −1  n  . The relationship between amplitude and phase can also be
 an 
expressed in phasor form, which is A n ∠φ n = a n − jb n .
Based on the above discussion, a function
f(t) = A cosnt –Bsinnt = A 2 + B 2 cos nt + tan −1

(16.12)
The plot of amplitude An of harmonic versus nω is called amplitude spectrum of
f(t) and the plot of phase φn versus nω is called phase spectrum of f(t). Both the
amplitude and phase spectra form the frequency spectrum of f(t).
Example 16.1
A rectified half sine wave is defined over one period f(t) = Asinωt for 0 < t < T/2
and f(t) = 0 for T/2 < t < T as shown in Fig. 16.1. Find the Fourier series of this

16.3 Exponential Fourier Series
Another way of expressing Fourier series is in exponential form. It is done by
applying Euler’s rule to equation (16.3). The equation shall be
f(t) = a0 +
1 ∞
1 ∞
(a n − jb n )e jnωt + ∑ (a n + jb n )e − jnωt
∑
2 n =1
2 n =1
(16.13)
Letting a0 = c0ej0t and summing over both positive and negative values of n, the
compact expression shall be
- 261 -
n =∞
f(t) =
∑c e
n = −∞
jnωt
(16.14)
n
Equation (16.14) has an advantage that the trigonometric expansion because cn
represents all series coefficients. Thus, exponential series is preferred over the
trigonometric series for analytical investigation.
Like the trigonometric series, the exponential series are orthogonal in the
T
T
0
0
sense that ∫ e jnωt e − jmωt dt = 0 for n ≠ m and ∫ e jnωt e − jmωt dt = T for n = m.
Multiply equation (16.14) by e − jmωt yields
T
∫ f ( t )e
− jmωt
n =∞
dt =
∑ c ∫e
n = −∞
0
T
jnωt
n
e − jmωt dt
(16.15)

Knowing all terms with n ≠ m varnish and remaining term with n = m reduces to
cmT, thus,
T
∫ f ( t )e
− jmωt
dt = c m T
(16.16)
0
Hence the coefficient cn shall be
T
cn =
1
f ( t )e − jnωt dt
∫
T0
(16.17)
Equation (16.17) holds for all values of n including n = 0. When n = 0, the
equation reduces to equation (16.5).
For n ≠ 0, insert e − jnωt = cosnωt - jsinnωt to equation (16.17), it becomes
T
cn =
T
1
1
f ( t ) cos nωtdt − ∫ f ( t ) j sin nωtdt
∫
T0
T0
(16.18)
Exchanging the sign of n, it gives rise to c-n = c *n .
Comparing equation (16.18) with equation (16.7) and (16.9), its concludes
that an = 2Re[cn] and bn = -2 Im[cn] for n ≥ 1.
- 262 -
Based on the above analysis, a new set of coefficients shall be defined, which
are c0 = a0, c n =
a n − jb n
a + jb n
, and c −n = c *n = n
.

16.4 Symmetry Considerations
The analysis done so far pointed out that the Fourier series mostly consists of
either sine terms or cosine terms. One may ask if there a method that can be used
in advance to avoid tedious mathematical process. Such method does exist based
on recognizing the existence of symmetry, which are even symmetry, odd
symmetry, and half-wave symmetry.
- 264 -
16.4.1 Even Symmetry
A function f(t) is even if its plot is symmetrical about the vertical axis; that is
f(t) = f(-t)
(16.19)
Examples of the even function are t2, t4, and cos t. Figure 16.5 shows an example
of periodic even function.

A main property of an even function f(t) is that
∫

16.4.2 Odd Symmetry
A function f(t) is said to be odd if the plot is anti-symmetrical about the vertical
axis; that is
f(-t) = -f(t)
(16.21)
T/2
The main characteristic of an odd function is
∫ f (t )dt = 0 . The coefficients of the

Fourier series are

16.4.3 Half-Wave Symmetry
A function is half-wave (odd) symmetric if
 T
f  t -  = − f (t)
 2
(16.23)
This shall mean that each half-cycle is the mirror image of the next half-cycle. An
example of half-wave symmetrical function is shown in Fig. 16.6.

16.5 Circuit Applications of Fourier Series
In practice, many circuits are driven by non-sinusoidal periodic function. To
obtain the steady state response of the circuit to a non-sinusoidal periodic function
- 266 -
requires the application of Fourier series, ac phasor analysis, and superposition
principle. The procedure usually involves three steps, which are
•

•
•
Express the excitation as Fourier series.
Transform the circuit from time domain to the frequency domain.
Find the response of dc and ac components in the Fourier series.
Add the individual dc and ac response using the superposition principle.
Let’s use two examples to illustrate the procedures.
Example 16.3
The circuit shown in Fig. 16.7 has a non-sinusoidal vs(t) source that has Fourier
series vs(t) =

2 π k =1 n
the corresponding amplitude spectrum.

The supply voltage is v(t) = 20 + 5 cos(t – 77.140) + cos(3t – 54.040).
The supply current is i(t) = 2 + cos(t + 100) + 6 cos(3t + 350) A.
