Fourier series express a piecewise continuous, bounded, periodic function as a linear combination of orthogonal sine and cosine functions.

The Fourier series of a function f(t) is of the form:

where, n is an integer and

Fourier series can be generalized to Fourier transformations for other classes of functions, for instance square integrable functions.
