Signals and Systems Midterm #1 - Dec. 2011

This document contains a midterm exam for a signals and systems course. The exam consists of 6 questions testing various concepts: 1) determining properties of signals like periodicity, 2) categorizing signals as finite energy or power and computing their energy or power, 3) sketching derived signals from a given signal, 4) determining properties of systems like memorylessness, stability, causality, linearity, and time-invariance, 5) decomposing signals into even and odd parts, and 6) computing the output of an LTI system for a given input based on the known output of another input. The exam tests a wide range of fundamental signals and systems concepts.
