A Discrete Fourier Transform is simply the name given to the Fourier Transform when it is applied to digital (discrete) rather than an analog (continuous) signal. An FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) is a faster version of the DFT that can be applied when the number of samples in the signal is a power of two. An FFT computation takes approximately N * log2(N) operations, whereas a DFT takes approximately N^2 operations, so the FFT is significantly faster
simple answer is
FFT = Fast DFT
DTFT is the Fourier Transform of a Discrete Signal.
DFT is the sampled version of DTFT

DIF stands for Decimation in frequency. It is an algorithm which is used to calculate DFT of an N-point sequence.
What is the difference between realism and liberalism?
difference between one- ones
FFT is faster than DFT because no. of complex multiplication in DFT is N^2 while in FFT no. of complex multiplications are N/2(log2N). for example if N=8 no. of complex multiplications required in DFT are 64. while no. of complex multiplications required in FFT are 12 thus reduces computation time.
idft is inverse of dft
By making use of periodicities in the sines that are multiplied to do the transforms, the FFT greatly reduces the amount of calculation required. Here's a little overview. Functionally, the FFT decomposes the set of data to be transformed into a series of smaller data sets to be transformed. Then, it decomposes those smaller sets into even smaller sets. At each stage of processing, the results of the previous stage are combined in special way. Finally, it calculates the DFT of each small data set.
because they have a high speed compared to fft
FFT reduces the computation since no. of complex multiplications required in FFT are N/2(log2N). FFT is used to compute discrete Fourier transform.

The basic difference between OFDMA and SC-FDMA is that, there there is an additional block of N point DFT before the sub-channel mapping in SC-FDMA. This will effectively reduce the PAPR, thus the power amplifier will have a lesser linear range in SC-FDMA when compared with OFDMA

To plot the frequency spectrum using the fft function in MATLAB, first compute the one-dimensional discrete Fourier transform using fft, provide the data series as an input. Then use the abs() function to get the magnitude spectrum, and plot the result using the plot() function, with the frequency domain on the x-axis and the magnitude spectrum on the y-axis.
FT is needed for spectrum analysis, FFT is fast FT meaning it is used to obtain spectrum of a signal quickly, the FFT algorithm inherently is fast algorithm than the conventional FT algorithm
the diff between the two lies in their very names - decimation is time and decimation in freq. when u say decimation on time, u will consider the individual samples(actually pair of samples) in time domain n find their freq parts and go further and further to find the fft. when u say decimation on freq, u will consider the individual samples in freq domain n combine them to come out with the actual fft.
There's no need for it.
