I've recently encountered the expression \begin{equation} \sum_{n = 0}^\infty J_{2n+1}(a)\cos[(2n+1)b]. \end{equation}
I'm famililar with the even form of this expression, which as a closed form solution $$J_0(a) + \sum_{n = 1}^\infty J_{2n}(a)\cos(2nb) = \cos(a\sin(b))$$
and was wondering if anyone had any clever ideas on how to obtain a closed form solution to its odd counterpart.

You are looking for the Jacobi–Anger expansion.
$$\Sigma_{n = 0}^\infty (-1)^{n}J_{2n+1}(a)\hspace{0.3mm}\text{cos}[(2n+1)b] = \frac{1}{2}\sin(a\cos(b))$$
