ILMathfft2 Method (InArraycomplex)

public static RetArray<complex> fft2(
	InArray<complex> A
)

Public Shared Function fft2 ( 
	A As InArray(Of complex)
) As RetArray(Of complex)

Dim A As InArray(Of complex)
Dim returnValue As RetArray(Of complex)

returnValue = ILMath.fft2(A)

Parameters

A

Type: ILNumericsInArraycomplex
Complex source array.

Return Value

The transformation is computed for the first 2 dimensions, regardless of those dimensions being singleton or non-singleton dimensions. If A is an n-d array, the transformation is repeated for trailing dimensions of A respectively.

The two dimensional transformation is equivalent to repeatedly transforming the columns and after that transforming the rows of A. However, using this function may be of magnitudes faster than using 1D transformations. This depends on the algorithm and API provided by the underlying native library.

The forward fourier transform and the inverse fourier transform of a given data array A are mathematically equivalent. It's only a scaling factor which is needed to make sure, A equals ifft(fft(A)). That scaling is introduced in the inverse transform.

The transformation is computed by use of the native library which currently is set up for your processor and OS version. The underlying library is automatically selected at ILNumerics startup and accessed via the static member ILMath.FFT. See the online documentation for more details on how to tune/configure and select dedicated native libraries. Currently supported libraries are: Intel MKL (included), AMD ACML and FFTW3 (prepared, optional modules, not included due to licensing conflicts).
