Graphical Convolution Example: - Convolve The Following Two Functions

This document provides an example of convolving two functions, f(t) and g(t). It explains that g(t) is slid across f(t) and the area under their product is found for overlapping regions. The convolution is calculated over five intervals based on the extent of overlap. The resulting convolution is a piecewise function equal to 0 when there is no overlap, and integrating the product of f(t) and g(t-τ) when there is partial or complete overlap.

• Replace t with in f(t) and g(t)


• Choose to flip and slide g() since it is simpler
and symmetric 3 g(t-)

• Functions overlap like this: 2
