How can I solve this (convolution) integral? [closed]
Let \$x(t) = \sigma(t)\$ where \$\sigma(t)\$ is the unit step function, and
\$h(t) = e^{-4t} \cdot \sigma(t)\$. When I try to solve the convolution \$x(t) \ast h(t)\$, I get
$$ x(t) \ast h(t) = \...

What does the real axis of a transfer function mean?
Let's say I have a system that has a transfer function \$ H(s) \$. Now \$ s = \sigma + j \omega \$, so \$ H(s) = H(\sigma + j \omega) \$. If I am not mistaken, the imaginary axis \$ j \omega \$ ...

Time invariant system with sinc impulse
Given said system, the impulse responses for the LTI systems \$H_1,H_2\$ are :
$$ h_{1}\left(\tau\right)=\frac{\sin\left(\omega_{1}\tau\right)}{\pi\tau}d\tau,h_{2}\left(\tau\right)=\frac{\sin\left(\...

Confused about the similarities between Fourier Series and Fourier Transform
My understanding of Fourier Series was, it is a method that decomposes a periodic signal into sum of signal given by infinite number of sines and cosines. And in case of Fourier Transform it was, that ...

Impulse Response of LTI Systems to Dirac Delta
I am reading a book on Linear Time-Invariant systems and came across the following:
$$y(t) = T\{x(t)\}$$
where input $$x(t) = \int_{-\infty}^\infty x(\tau)\delta(t-\tau)\text{d}\tau$$
\$\delta\$ is ...

Time invariant system
Is the system \$y(t) = x(t-2) + x(2-t)\$ time invariant?
Here is my solution:
Let \$x_1(t)\$ be an arbitrary input, then the corresponding output is:
\$y_1(t) = x_1(t-2) + x_1(2-t)\$
Let \$x_2(t) = ...

Finding impulse response by a non-Laplace-transform method
The input function is $$x(t)=e^{-t}u(t)$$ and the corresponding output function of a linear system is $$y(t)=10e^{-t}\cos(4t)u(t)$$ where \$u(t)\$ is unit step function.
I understand how to find the ...

How to plot a pole in the s-plane if it has a repeated root?
Let's suppose I have a transfer function H(s) with a repeated pole:
$$H(s) = \frac{1}{(s+2)^2}$$
What would that look like on a pole plot?
Do you just circle the -2 on the real number line twice?

Definition of minimal phase
Let us consider a linear time-invariant system. The term minimum phase is used for a system that has stable poles and stable zeros. A system is called nonminimal phase if it is not minimum phase.
