(b) For which of the following values of a does the Fourier transform of x(t)e
-" converge?
(i) a = 1
(ii) a = 2.5
(iii) a = 3.5
(c) Determine the Laplace transform X(s) of x(t). Sketch the location of the
poles and zeros of X(s) and the ROC.
Determine the Laplace transform, pole and zero locations, and associated
ROC for each of the following time functions.
An LTI system has an impulse response h(t) for which the Laplace
transform
H(s) is
Determine the system output y(t) for all t if the input x(t) is given by
(a) From the expression for the Laplace transform of x(t), derive the fact
that the Laplace transform of x(t) is the Fourier transform of x(t)
weighted by an exponential.
(b) Derive the expression for the inverse Laplace transform using the
Fourier transform synthesis equation.
Determine the Laplace transform, pole-zero location, and associated ROC for
each of the following time functions.
c) e atu(t), > 0
(e) u(t)
(b) If x(t) is an odd time function such that x(t) = -x(--t), show that X(s) = -
X(-s).
(d) Determine which, if any, of the pole-zero plots in part (c) could
correspond to an odd time function. For those that could, indicate the
required ROC.
Solution
(a) The Fourier transform of the signal does not exist because of the
presence of growing exponentials. In other words, x(t) is not absolutely
integrable.
Although the growth rate has been slowed, the Fourier transform still
does not converge.
The first term has now been sufficiently weighted that it decays to 0 as t
goes to infinity. However, since the second term is still growing
exponentially, the Fourier transform does not converge.
a > 0, so o + a>0,0
(b) Since there are no poles present, the ROC exists everywhere in
the s plane. (i) a = 1 must be in the ROC. Therefore, the only possible
ROC is that shown in Figure S20.3-4.
(ii) We are specifying a left-sided signal. The corresponding ROC is as
shown in Figure S20.3-5.
so, by inspection,
(b) For x(t) left-sided, the ROC is to the left of the leftmost pole, as shown in
Figure S20.4-2.
Since
we conclude that
Method 1
which does not have a constant term. Therefore a necessary condition is that
the number of zeros equal or exceed the number of poles.
