DTFT Negative Exponent

Cuthbert Nyack
The Z transform of a negative expontial f(t) = e-at is shown below where T is the sampling time.

The applet below shows the frequency spectrum of the negative exponential over the range from 0 to the sampling frequency. The magnitude of the spectrum is shown in green. The phase of the spectrum is in red. Real part is in orange. and imaginary part in yellow. The samples are in magenta and the negative exponential in gray.


The applet below is similar to the above but the frequency range is not restricted to the sampling frequency so the periodicity of the spectrum can be seen.
