Abstract
A general systematic procedure is described for computing the Fourier transform and the ambiguity function of waveforms that are piecewise polynomial. The procedure can be implemented by hand or programmed for execution by a digital computer. The main advantage of the technique is that integration is replaced by a finite summation. Examples include the computation of characteristic function, moments, and the ambiguity function of an amplitude modulated linear FM signal.
