Seems pretty elementary but I am not sure what I am overlooking. Thanks Chris

Could you explain the math a little bit or point me to a source that would? But yes, you are correct on the assumption that it is in summation notation. In fact, it is a nested as follows: FP_(u+mN,v+nN )=1/N ∑_(x=0)^(N-1) ∑_(y=0)^(N-1)〖P_(x,y) e^(-j(2π/N)(ux+vy) )*e^(-j2π(mx+ny)) 〗 I am not sure how to justify saying (maybe I don't know how to handle the imaginary portion): e^(-j2π(mx+ny)) = 1 Sorry, I am not sure how to get an image in as I do not have a URL for my image. Thanks for the help. Last edited by skipjack; December 30th, 2016 at 09:55 AM.

Euler's formula says

$e^{j x} = \cos(x) + j \sin(x)$

Applying that here, we get

$e^{-j 2 \pi(m x + n y)} = \cos(-2\pi(m x+ n y)) + j \sin(-2\pi(m x + n y)) = 1 + j0=1, \text{ when } (m x + n y) \in \mathbb{Z}$
