Interpretation Method

The mathematical structure of the Fourier transformations of theoretical gravity anomalies of several geometrically simple bodies appears to have distinct advantages in the interpretation of these anomalies. However, the practical application of this technique is dependent upon the transformation of an observed gravity anomaly of finite length. Ideally, interpretation methods similar to those for the transformations of the theoretical gravity anomalies should be developed for anomalies of a finite length. However, the mathematical complexity of the convolution integrals in the transform calculations of theoretical anomaly segments indicate that no general closed analytical solution useful for interpretation is available. Thus, in order to utilize the Fourier transform interpretation method, the data must be of sufficient length for the finite transform to closely approximate the theoretical transforms.

The linear canonical transform (LCT) provides a unified treatment of the generalized Fourier transforms in the sense that it is an embodiment of several well-known integral transforms including the Fourier transform, fractional Fourier transform, Fresnel transform. Using this fascinating property of LCT, we, in this paper, constructed associated wavelet packets. First, we construct wavelet packets corresponding to nonuniform Multiresolution analysis (MRA) associated with LCT and then those corresponding to vector-valued nonuniform MRA associated with LCT. We investigate their various properties by means of LCT.

Bhimasankaram et al. (1977) used Fourier spectrum analysis for a direct approach to the interpretation of gravity anomaly over a finite inclined dike. They derived several equations from the real and imaginary components and from the amplitude and phase spectra to relate various parameters of the dike. Because the width 2b of the dike (Figure 1) appears only in sin (ωb) term—ω being the angular frequency—they determined its value from the minima/zeroes of the amplitude spectra. The theoretical Fourier spectrum uses gravity field data over an infinite distance (length), whereas field observations are available only for a limited distance. Thus, a set of observational data is viewed as a product of infinite‐distance data with an appropriate window function. Usually, a rectangular window of appropriate distance (width) and of unit magnitude is chosen for this purpose. The Fourier transform of the finite‐distance and discrete data is thus represented by convolution operations between Fourier transforms of the infinite‐distance data, the window function, and the comb function. The combined effect gives a smooth, weighted average spectrum. Thus, the Fourier transform of actual observed data may differ substantially from theoretic data. The differences are apparent for low‐ and high‐frequency ranges. As a result, the minima of the amplitude spectra may change considerably, thereby rendering the estimate of the width of the dike unreliable from the roots of the equation sin (ωb) = 0.

Introduction. Spectral synthesis is the study of whether functions in a certain set, usually a translation invariant subspace (a variety), can be synthesized from certain simple functions, exponential monomials, which are contained in the set. This problem is transformed by considering the annihilator ideal in the dual space, and after taking the Fourier transform the problem becomes one of deciding whether a function is in a certain ideal, that is, we have a ‘division problem’. Because of this we must take into consideration the possibility of the Fourier transforms of functions having zeros of order greater than or equal to 1. This is why, in the original situation, we study whether varieties are generated by their exponential monomials, rather than just their exponential functions. This viewpoint of the problem as a division question, of course, perhaps throws light on why Wiener's Tauberian theorem works, and is implicit in the construction of Schwartz's and Malliavin's counter examples to spectral synthesis in L1(G) (cf. Rudin ((4))).

The Fourier Transform

The application of the method of the Fourier transform in interpreting gravity anomalies of faults has so far been based upon the Fourier transform of the gravity anomaly due to a single semi‐infinite block cut by a vertical fault. A general expression for the Fourier transform of the fault anomaly is here derived which is valid for an arbitrary angle of inclination of the fault plane. For deriving the general expression, the gravity anomaly of the fault is first separated into a constant and a variable term. The transforms of the two terms are calculated separately and then added to give the general expression for the Fourier transform of the fault anomaly.

AbstractFourier transform methods of smoothing and interpolation are applied to X-ray diffraction data. It is shown that, frequently, too small a step size is used. Major gains are to be expected by selection of the optimum step size and use of these methods.A comparison of Fourier transforms of diffractograms of quartz measured between 67 and 69° 2θ, collected at varying step intervals (0.1 to 0.01° 2θ) was used to illustrate these applications. By examining the Fourier transform of the diffractogram and noting where it decays to die baseline, a reasonable estimate of the optimal step interval can be obtained. In addition, Fourier interpolation can be used to enhance the appearance of the diffractogram, approximating a continuous plot.

We report on inversion of the Fourier transform when the frequency variable can be scaled in a variety of different ways that improve the resolution of certain parts of the frequency domain. The corresponding inverse Fourier transform is shown to exist in the form of two dual scale-frequency series. Upon discretization of the continuous scale factor, this Fourier transform series inverse becomes a certain nonharmonic double series, a discretized scale-frequency (DSF) series. The DSF series is also demonstrated, theoretically and practically, to be rate-optimizable with respect to its two free parameters, when it satisfies, as an entropy maximizer, a pertaining recursive nonlinear programming problem incorporating the entropy-based uncertainty principle.

The Fourier Transform

AbstractUncertainty principles like Heisenberg's assert an inequality obeyed by some measure of joint uncertainty associated with a function and its Fourier transform. The more groups under which that measure is invariant, the more that measure represents an intrinsic property of the underlying object represented by the given function. The Fourier transform is imbedded in a continuous group of operators, the fractional Fourier transforms, but the Heisenberg measure of overall spread turns out not to be invariant under that group. A new family is developed of measures that are invariant under the group of fractional Fourier transforms and that obey associated uncertainty principles. The first member corresponds to Heisenberg's measure but is generally smaller than his although equal to it in special cases.

Odegard and Berg (1965) have shown that the interpretational process can be simplified for several idealized bodies by utilizing the Fourier transform of the resultant theoretical gravity anomalies. Additional studies relating similar conclusions for other idealized bodies have been reported by Gladkii (1963), Roy (1967), Sharma et al (1970), Davis (1971), Eby (1972), and Saha (1975), and a summary of the spatial and frequency domain equations is given in Regan and Hinze (1976, Table 1); however, the transforms of the three‐dimensional prism and vertical line elements, often utilized in interpretation, have not been previously examined in this manner. Although Bhattacharyya and Chen (1977) have developed and utilized the transform of the 3-D prism in their method for determining the distribution of magnetization in a localized region, it is still of value to present the interpretive advantages of the transform equation itself.

A classical Fock space consists of functions of the form,Φ↔(ϕ0,ϕ1,…,ϕq,…),whereϕ0∈Candϕq∈L2(R3q),q≥1. We will replace theϕq,q≥1withq-symmetric rapid descent test functions within tempered distribution theory. This space is a natural generalization of a classical Fock space as seen by expanding functionals having generalized Taylor series. The particular coefficients of such series are multilinear functionals having tempered distributions as their domain. The Fourier transform will be introduced into this setting. A theorem will be proven relating the convergence of the transform to the parameter,s, which sweeps out a scale of generalized Fock spaces.
