The discrete fourier transform or dft is the transform that deals with a nite discretetime signal and a nite or discrete number of frequencies. Discrete fourier series dtft may not be practical for analyzing because is a function of the continuous frequency variable and we cannot use a digital computer to calculate a continuum of functional values dfs is a frequency analysis tool for periodic infiniteduration discretetime signals which is practical because it is discrete.
