1. Type help syms to learn about constructing symbolic expressions.

3. How is func stored in MATLAB workspace? (That is, what do you see if you type

func in the command prompt and press enter?)

Explanation:- func is stored in matlab as a normal function with independent variable t instead of storing an
array/value.

4. By defining syms t prior to func, we have created a symbolic expression in terms of

the variable t. Type help subs to see how to numerically evaluate the symbolic

expression for a given value of t.

subs(func,t,0.25)

ans =

Explanation: The subs function will return the value of the given input function by substituting the given input
parameter in the place of the given input variable. Here, my function in func as defined before and i want to
substitute 0.25 in the place of t. Now the subs function returned the value of func at t=0.25 which is 1.

5. Use subs to evaluate func for t = −1 : 0.01 : 1.

t1= -1:0.01:1;
subs(func,t,t1)

ans =

6. Type help int to learn about numerical integration. Use int() to evaluate the integralof func and func2 over one
period. Verify the correctness of the results using pen-and-paper calculation.

y1=int(func,t,0,1);
disp(y1);

y2=int(func*func,t,0,1);
disp(y2);

Example 1

1. Using the heaviside function create a signal x(t) = u(t) − u(t − 1).

2. Define the signal h(t) also same as x(t).

3. Plot the signals x(t) and h(t). (Use subs to evaluate and then plot the function).

4. Obtain y(t) = x(t) ∗ h(t) by using the formula for convolution. Note that in the

formula for convolution there are two variables. Hence clearly specify the variable of

integration while using the int function.

5. Using subplot, plot x(t), h(t) and y(t) on the same graph and show the plot to the

TA.

syms t;
x(t)=heaviside(t)-heaviside(t-1);
h(t)=heaviside(t)-heaviside(t-1);
syms t1;
y(t)=int(x(t1)*h(t-t1),t1,[0,2]);
subplot(1,3,1)
plot(0:0.001:1,subs(x(t),t,0:0.001:1))
subplot(1,3,2)
plot(0:0.001:1,subs(h(t),t,0:0.001:1))
subplot(1,3,3)
plot(0:0.001:2,subs(y(t),t,0:0.001:2))

Example 2

1. Consider x1(t) = u(t) − u(t − 1) and h1(t) = u(t − 1) − u(t − 3).

2. Using subplot, plot the signals x1(t), h1(t) and y1(t) = x1(t) ∗ h1(t).

syms t
syms t2
x1(t)=heaviside(t)-heaviside(t-1);
h1(t)=heaviside(t-1)-heaviside(t-3);
y1(t)=int(x1(t2)*h1(t-t2),t2,[1,4]);
subplot(3,1,1)
plot(0:0.001:1,subs(x1(t),t,0:0.001:1))
subplot(3,1,2)
plot(1:0.001:3,subs(h1(t),t,1:0.001:3))
subplot(3,1,3)
plot(0:0.001:4,subs(y1(t),t,0:0.001:4))

Example 3

1. Consider x2(t) = (e^(−2t))*u(t) and h2(t) = u(t).

2. Using subplot, plot the signals x2(t), h2(t) and y2(t) = x2(t) ∗ h2(t) for

−10 ≤ t ≤ 10.

syms t;
syms t3;
x2(t)=exp((-2*t))*heaviside(t);
h2(t)=heaviside(t);
y2(t)=int(x2(t3)*h2(t-t3),t3,[0,10]);
subplot(3,1,1)
plot(0:0.001:1,subs(x2(t),t,0:0.001:1))
subplot(3,1,2)
plot(1:0.001:3,subs(h2(t),t,-1:0.001:1))
subplot(3,1,3)
plot(-10:0.001:10,subs(y2(t),t,-10:0.001:10))

Example 4

1. Using subplot, plot the signals x3(t), h3(t) and y3(t) = x3(t) ∗ h3(t) for

−10 ≤ t ≤ 10.

syms t;
syms t3;
x3(t)=t*(heaviside(t)-heaviside(t-2));
h3(t)=heaviside(t+1)-heaviside(t-1);
y3(t)=int(x3(t3)*h3(t-t3),t3,[0,10]);
subplot(3,1,1)
plot(0:0.001:2,subs(x3(t),t,0:0.001:2))
subplot(3,1,2)
plot(-2:0.001:2,subs(h3(t),t,-2:0.001:2))
subplot(3,1,3)
plot(-10:0.001:10,subs(y3(t),t,-10:0.001:10))
