However, the presence of noise in the data results in a high error rate in calculating the numerical Fourier transform. Therefore, to reduce the error rate in noisy conditions, the solution order of the Fourier transform can be increased. In the present paper, the solution order for calculating the numerical Fourier transform in the presence of noise has been raised using a straight line, second and third-order polynomials; afterward, the impedance of series, parallel, and battery circuits is calculated. Additionally, the higher- order solutions’ calculated impedance is compared to the acquired impedance in the FFT method in noisy conditions. We conclude that increasing the * Corresponding Author 1 Email addresses: r.hamedi@email.kntu.ac.ir (R. Hamedi, Cell phone: +989127584138); ftorabi@kntu.ac.ir (F.
