It is a series of impulses (Dirac Delta functions), each positioned at the point where the square wave changes amplitude. For a negative change in amplitude, the impulse is -inf; likewise, for a positive change in amplitude, the impulse is +inf.
The fourier expansion of the square wave is:
4/pi sum_{k=1}^\infty [ sin((2k-1)*w*t) / (2k-1) ] Likewise, its derivative is:
4/pi*w sum_{k=1}^\infty [ cos((2k-1)*w*t) ]
If you plot, the first 50 terms, you will get a pretty good idea of what it looks like. impulse

What does a convection wave look like?
Convection waves are invisible: You can't see them.
What wave property affects the speed of a wave?
Both the wavelength and the frequency of a wave affect the speed of a wave.
What is the Matlab code to generate a square wave?
Here is an example Matlab code to generate a square wave with a frequency of 1 Hz, a duration of 1 second, and an amplitude of 1: t = 0:0.001:1; % time vector from 0 to 1 second with a step of 0.001 f = 1; % frequency of the square wave (1 Hz) x = square(2*pi*f*t); % generate the square wave plot(t, x); % plot the square wave This code uses the square function in Matlab to generate the square wave and the plot function to visualize it.
How is trig used in life?
The obvious answer is the relationships between the sides and angles of triangles. Waves in the sea are an example of a sine wave. Tidal Experts and Meterologists alike use sine waves to help predict tides. Music will also emit waves that may often look like a sine wave and pure notes will look like sine or cosine waves. The speed of a swinging pendulum can be plotted as a sine wave as well as the sound of a tuning fork.
Can a discontinuous function can be developed in the Fourier series?
Yes. For example: A square wave has a Fourier series.
What does a low pitch sound wave look like?
they look like your mommy
In telecommunication what is a pulse train with a 50 percent duty-cycle called?
Square
What is the derivation of the wave function?
A simple wave function can be expressed as a trigonometric function of either sine or cosine. lamba = A sine(a+bt) or lamba = A cosine(a+bt) where lamba = the y value of the wave A= magnitude of the wave a= phase angle b= frequency. the derivative of sine is cosine and the derivative of cosine is -sine so the derivative of a sine wave function would be y'=Ab cosine(a+bt) """"""""""""""""""" cosine wave function would be y' =-Ab sine(a+bt)
What does a normal look like on a wave diagram?
The normal points in the direction that the wave is traveling.
What did wave rock look like before it was a wave?
i love ice cream(L)
What is use of function generators?
funcation genrator is used for genrating various forms of the waveforms like as sin wave, square wave , triangular wave
What is energy wave spectrum?
does it look like i know
What machine can show us what waves look like?
If the wave can be turned into an electrical signal then an oscilloscope can be used to look at the wave pattern.
What does one complete wave length depicted as a standing wave pattern look like?
It looks as if the wave is reflecting in on itself.
Which wave is highest RMS value peakvalue being the same?
The wave with the maximum RMS value, in comparision with the peak value, is the square wave.
Why does a mirage look like water?
in a heat wave your brain recoqnizes that its a "wave" of heat and then (because its dehydrated usually) imagines the image in a wave like form
Difference between square wave and digital signal?
A: square wave can be positive and or negative. A digital signal is a square wave but it can be of invariable duty cycles
