In this paper we present parameter estimation methods for IEEE 802.11ad transmission to estimate the frequency offset value and channel impulse response. Furthermore a less known low complexity signal processing architecture – the Recursive Discrete Fourier Transform (R-DFT) – is applied which may improve the estimation results. The paper also discusses the R-DFT and its advantages compared to the conventional Fast Fourier Transform.

Fast Fourier Transform is an advanced algorithm for computing Discrete Fourier Transform efficiently. Although the results available from the operation of Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) are same, but exploiting the periodicity and symmetry property of phase factor Fast Fourier Transform computes the Discrete Fourier Transform using reduced number of multiplication and addition operations. The basic structure used in the operations of Fast Fourier Transform is the Butterfly structure. For the implementation of Fast Fourier Transform the two methods are used such as decimation in time (DIT) and decimation in frequency (DIF). Both the methods give same result but for decimation in time of Fast Fourier Transform bit reversed inputs are applied and for decimation in frequency of Fast Fourier Transform normal order inputs are applied, and the result is reversed again. In this paper, operations for DFT and FFT have been discussed and shown with examples. It is found that generalized formula for FFT have been described same in the books, but the expressions in the intermediate computations for the first decimation and second decimation are different in the various books of Digital Signal Processing. The expressions in the intermediate computation of FFT described in different books are broadly compared in this paper

The article is intended to the students, who make their first steps in the application of the Fourier transform to physics problems. We examine several elementary examples from the signal theory and classic optics to show relation between continuous and discrete Fourier transform. Recipes for correct interpretation of the results of FDFT (Fast Discrete Fourier Transform) obtained with the commonly used application programs (Matlab, Mathcad, Mathematica) are given.

This Article is on the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) and the fast Fourier transform (FFT). As we shall see, FFT is a slight misnomer, causing confusion to beginners. The idiosyncratic title will be clarified in §4.Computing machines are highly efficient nowadays, and much of the efficiency is based on the use of the FFT to speed up calculations in ultrahigh precision arithmetic. The algorithm is now an indispensable tool for solving problems that involve a large amount of computation, resulting in many useful and important applications: for example, in signal processing, data compression and photo-images in general, and WiFi, mobile phones, CT scanners and MR imaging in particular.
