Aim: To obtain linear and circular convolution of two input sequence using scilab
A linear system has the property that the response to a linear combination of inputs is the
same linear combination of the individual responses. The property of time invariance states that,
in effect, the system is not sensitive to the time origin. More specifically, if the input is shifted in
time by some amount, then the output is simply shifted by the same amount. The importance of
linearity derives from the basic notion that for a linear system if the system inputs can be
decomposed as a linear combination of some basic inputs and the system response is known for
each of the basic inputs, then the response can be constructed as the same linear combination of
the responses to each of the basic inputs. Signals (or functions) can be decomposed as a linear
combination of basic signals in a wide variety of ways. For systems that are both linear and time-
invariant, there are two particularly useful choices for these basic signals: delayed impulses and
complex exponentials. The representation of both continuous time and discrete-time signals as a
linear combination of delayed impulses and the consequences for representing linear, time-
invariant systems. The resulting representation is referred to as convolution.
