Assignment 4

1. Consider a system with 𝑦𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑝 (𝑡) = (1 − 𝑒 −2𝑡 )𝑢(𝑡). Employ Mathcad and the two
formulas derived in class (shown below) to determine the approximate and exact zero-
state responses of a LTI syste, to the following inputs, 𝑓(𝑡). Employ ∆= 0.2 and repeat
for ∆= 0.02

Formulas:

𝑦(𝑡) ≅ 𝑓(0)𝑦𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑝 (𝑡) + ∑[𝑓(𝑛∆) − 𝑓((𝑛 − 1)∆)]𝑦𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑝 (𝑡 − 𝑛∆)


𝑛=1
𝑡
𝑑𝑓(𝜏)
𝑦(𝑡) = 𝑓(0)𝑦𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑝 (𝑡) + ∫ 𝑦 (𝑡 − 𝜏)𝑑𝜏
0 𝑑𝜏 𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑝

2. Search Google for a proof that all passive linear circuits (circuits with capacitors,
inductors and resistors, but no dependent sources) are always stable; i.e., 𝑅𝑒{𝑠𝑖 } < 0, ∀𝑖
where 𝑠𝑖 are the natural frequencies.

3. Derive the following convolutions from Convolution Pair #12:


4. Employ the appropriate properties of convolution and the Convolution Table to find the
zero-state response of an LTI system with ℎ(𝑡) = 𝛿(𝑡) − 𝑒 −𝑡 𝑢(𝑡) to the input 𝑓(𝑡) =
cos(𝑡)𝑢(𝑡). Verify your answer by solving the convolution integral using Mathcad.

5. Consider the following LTIC system described by, 𝑦̇ (𝑡) + 2𝑦(𝑡) = 𝑓̇(𝑡) + 3𝑓(𝑡), 𝑡 ≥ 0.
Determine the impulse response ℎ(𝑡) employing the direct method discussed in class.
Here, you first form a proper function ℎ(𝑡) with unknown coefficients (valid for 𝑡 ≥ 0)
and then solve for the unknown coefficients by substituting ℎ(𝑡) in the differential
equation.
6. Repeat Problem 5 employing the textbook method of Section 2.3, p. 115-116 (referred to
as “Method 2” at the end of Lecture 9).

7. Determine and sketch 𝑦(𝑡) = 𝛿𝑇 (𝑡) ∗ ℎ(𝑡) for the following values: (𝑎) 𝑇 = 3, (𝑏) 𝑇 =
2, (𝑐) 𝑇 = 1.5. The signals are shown below.

8. Find and sketch 𝑐(𝑡) = 𝑓1 (1) ∗ 𝑓2 (𝑡) for the signals


Ans. (a)

9. Using the property 𝑓(𝑡)𝛿(𝑡) = 𝑓(0)𝛿(𝑡) to simplify ℎ̇(𝑡) before we differentiate it to


obtain ℎ̈(𝑡), solve for the constants in ℎ(𝑡) = (𝐴1 𝑒 −𝑡 + 𝐴2 𝑡𝑒 −𝑡 )𝑢(𝑡) assuming that ℎ(𝑡)
satisfies the differential equation,

ℎ̈(𝑡) + 2ℎ̇(𝑡) + ℎ(𝑡) = 2𝛿̇ (𝑡) + 𝛿(𝑡)

10. Consider the following circuit. Obtain the unit-impulse response, ℎ(𝑡), 𝑡 ≥ 0. You may work in
the time domain or in the s-domain (Laplace transform). Treat the voltage source as the input
signal 𝑓(𝑡) and 𝑖𝐿 (𝑡) as the output signal. Then, solve for the zero-state response, 𝑖𝑧𝑠 (𝑡) =
𝑓(𝑡) ∗ ℎ(𝑡), with 𝑓(𝑡) = 24𝑢(𝑡).
