In this article, we demonstrate how to compute the power spectrum of periodic signals using the DFT method. We implement the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) algorithm to analyze signals and extract spectral amplitude information. The implementation involves sampling the periodic signal and applying DFT through mathematical operations like complex exponentials and summation. Key functions include signal windowing to reduce spectral leakage and normalization for accurate amplitude representation. This analytical approach enables comprehensive understanding of spectral characteristics, allowing for more precise conclusions in signal processing applications. The code implementation typically involves loops for DFT computation or optimized FFT libraries for efficient calculation of frequency components.
