Computes a Fourier sine or cosine transform.
#include <imsl.h>
float imsl_f_int_fcn_fourier (float fcn(), float a, Imsl_quad weight, float omega, …, 0)
The type double function is imsl_d_int_fcn_fourier.
float fcn (float x)
(Input)
User-supplied function to be integrated.
float a
(Input)
Lower limit of integration. The upper limit of integration is ∞.
Imsl_quad weight and float omega
(Input)
These two parameters are used to describe the trigonometric weight.
The parameter weight can take on the
two values described below, and the parameter omega = ∞
specifies the frequency of the trigonometric weighting function.

IMSL_COS |

IMSL_SIN |

The return value is

if weight = IMSL_COS. If weight = IMSL_SIN, then the cosine factor is replaced with a sine factor. If no value can be computed, NaN is returned.

The function imsl_f_int_fcn_fourier is a special-purpose integrator that uses a globally adaptive scheme to reduce the absolute error. It computes integrals whose integrands have the special form w(x)f(x) where w(x) is either cosωx or sinωx. The integration interval is always semi-infinite of the form [a, ∞]. These Fourier integrals are approximated by repeated calls to the function imsl_f_int_fcn_trig followed by extrapolation.
On some platforms,imsl_f_int_fcn_fourier can evaluate the user-supplied function fcn in parallel. This is done only if the function imsl_omp_options is called to flag user-defined functions as thread-safe. A function is thread-safe if there are no dependencies between calls. Such dependencies are usually the result of writing to global or static variables.
The function imsl_f_int_fcn_fourier is based on the subroutine QAWF by Piessens et al. (1983).
The value of

is computed. Notice that the integrand is coded to protect for the singularity at zero.
#include <math.h>
#include <imsl.h>
float fcn(float x);
int main()
{
float q, exact, omega;
omega = imsl_f_constant("pi",0) / 2.;
imsl_omp_options(IMSL_SET_FUNCTIONS_THREAD_SAFE, 1, 0);
/* Evaluate the integral */
q = imsl_f_int_fcn_fourier (fcn, 0.0,
IMSL_COS, omega,
0);
/* Print the result and the */
/* exact answer */
exact = 1.0;
printf("integral = %10.3f\nexact = %10.3f\n", q, exact);
}
float fcn(float x)
{
return (x==0.) ? 0. : 1./sqrt(x);
}
integral = 1.000
exact = 1.000
The value of

is again computed. The values of the actual and estimated
error are printed as well. Note that these numbers are machine dependent.
Furthermore, the error estimate is usually pessimistic. That is, the actual
error is usually smaller than the error estimate,
as is the case in this
example.The number of function evaluations also are printed. Notice that the
integrand is coded to protect for the singularity at zero.
#include <math.h>
#include <imsl.h>
float fcn(float x);
int main()
{
int n_evals;
float q, exact, omega, err_est, exact_err;
omega = imsl_f_constant("pi",0) / 2.0;
imsl_omp_options(IMSL_SET_FUNCTIONS_THREAD_SAFE, 1, 0);
/* Evaluate the integral */
q = imsl_f_int_fcn_fourier (fcn, 0.0,
IMSL_COS, omega,
IMSL_ERR_EST, &err_est,
IMSL_N_EVALS, &n_evals,
0);
/* Print the result and the */
/* exact answer */
exact = 1.;
exact_err = fabs(exact - q);
printf("integral = %10.3f\nexact = %10.3f\n", q, exact);
printf("error estimate = %e\nexact error = %e\n", err_est,
exact_err);
printf("The number of function evaluations = %d\n", n_evals);
}
