9. Fast Fourier Transform: Review of Fourier Analysis

The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is a critical algorithm in signal processing that efficiently computes the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT), enabling real-time analysis of signals. It is built on Fourier analysis principles, which decompose signals into sinusoidal components to analyze their frequency content. The FFT's logarithmic complexity makes it suitable for large datasets, with numerous applications spanning audio and image processing, speech recognition, and communication systems.
