The Gibbs' phenomenon from a signal processing point of view

Recently, Fay and Kloppers gave two proofs to show that the well-known Gibbs' phenomenon for Fourier series at a jump discontinuity depends only on the size of the jump and is a multiple of the integral 1/π ∫₀ ^π (sin x / x) dx. We give another proof, based upon low-pass filtering of the Fourier transform, that uses the observation that a truncated Fourier series for a function ? (x) is ‘very nearly’ equal to the convolution integral 1/π ∫ _-∞ ^+∞ ? (x - t)(sin nt / t) dt.
