I am currently working on a program that has to implement a 2D-FFT, (for cross correlation). I did a 1D FFT with CUDA which gave me the correct results, i am now trying to implement a 2D version. With few examples and documentation online i find it hard to find out what the error is.
So far i have been using the cuFFT manual only.
Anyway, i have created two 5x5 arrays and filled them with 1's. I have copied them onto the GPU memory and done the forward FFT, multiplied them and then done ifft on the result. This gives me a 5x5 array with values 650. I would expect to get a DC signal with the value 25 in only one slot in the 5x5 array. Instead i get 650 in the entire array.
Furthermore i am not allowed to print out the value of the signal after it has been copied onto the GPU memory. Writing
cout << d_signal[1].x << endl;
Gives me an acces violation. I have done the same thing in other cuda programs, where this has not been an issue. Does it have something to do with how the complex variable works, or is it human error?
If anyone has any pointers to what is going wrong i would greatly appreciate it. Here is the code

delete result, fg, fig;

The above code gives the following terminal output:

There are several problems here:
cuFFT performs un-normalized FFTs; that is, performing a forward FFT on an input data set followed by an inverse FFT on the resulting set yields data that is equal to the input, scaled by the number of elements. Scaling either transform by the reciprocal of the size of the data set is left for the user to perform as seen fit.
So by my reckoning, the correct output solution for your code should be a 5x5 matrix with 625 in each entry, which would be normalised to a 5x5 matrix with 25 in each entry, ie. the expected result. I don't understand how the problem at (1) isn't producing different results as the multiplication kernel should be failing.
TLDR; nothing to see here, move along...
