Abstract
We develop a formulation of the Baade-Wesselink method which uses the Fourier coefficients of the observables. We derive an explicit, analytic expression to determine the mean radius from each Fourier order. The simplicity of this method allows us to derive the uncertainty in the mean radius due to measurement errors.
