Errr, perhaps you should read a little about Fourier Transforms.  So
then the basic functions to look at are fft, etc.... If what you mean
by frequency domain signals is more power spectral densities, then the
function pwelch from octave-forge is what you need.. Explaining
windowing, etc of dicrete fourier transforms and their effects on the
accuracy of the result can't really be explained in such a short
e-mail, so I won't go into why pwelch is better for a power spectral
densities than a straight fft..
