 Solution
Solution 1:
(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.
(b) (i) For the case a = 1, we have that

Although the growth rate has been slowed, the Fourier transform still does
not converge.
(ii) For the case a = 2.5, we have that

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.
(iii) For the case a = 3.5, we have that

Both terms do decay as t goes to infinity, and the Fourier transform

converges. We note that for any value of a > 3.0, the signal x(t)e -' decays
exponentially, and the Fourier transform converges.

(c) The Laplace transform of x(t) is

and its pole-zero plot and ROC are as shown in
Figure S20.1

Note that if a > 3.0, s = a + jw is in the region of convergence because, as we

showed in part (b)(iii), the Fourier transform converges.

Solution
2:
as shown in Figure S20.2-1.

The Laplace transform converges for Re~s) + a > 0, so

as shown in Figure S20.2-2.

 Solution
3:
(a) (i) Since the Fourier transform of x(t)e ~'exists, a = 1 must be in the ROC.
Therefore only one possible ROC exists, shown in Figure S20.3-1.

(ii) We are specifying a left-sided signal. The corresponding ROC is as given in

Figure S20.3-2.
Solution
4:
(iii) We are specifying a right-sided signal. The corresponding ROC is as
given in Figure S20.3-3.

(b) Since there are no poles present, the ROC exists everywhere in the s
plane.
(c) (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.
(iii) We are specifying a right-sided signal. The corresponding ROC is as
shown in Figure S20.3-9.

Constraint on ROC for Pole-Zero Pattern

Solution
5:
(a) For x(t) right-sided, the ROC is to the right of the rightmost pole, as
shown in Figure S20.4-1.

Using partial fractions,

(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

(c) For the two-sided assumption, we know that x(t) will have the
form

We know the inverse Laplace transforms of the following:

Which of the combinations should we choose for the two-sided case?
Suppose we choose

We ask, For what values of a does x(t)e -0' have a Fourier transform?
And we see that there are no values. That is, suppose we choose a > -1,
so that the first term has a Fourier transform. For a > -1, e - 2 te -'' is a
growing exponential as t goes to negative infinity, so the second term
does not have a Fourier transform. If we increase a, the first term
decays faster as t goes to infinity, but the second term grows faster as t
goes to negative infinity. Therefore, choosing a > -1 will not yield a
Fourier transform of x(t)e -'. If we choose a 5 -1, we note that the first
term will not have a Fourier transform. Therefore, we conclude that our
choice of the two-sided sequence was wrong. It corresponds to the
invalid region of convergence shown in Figure S20.4-3.
If we choose the other possibility,

we see that the valid region of convergence is as given in

Figure S20.4-4.

Solution
6:
There are two ways to solve this problem.
Method 1
This method is based on recognizing that the system input is a
superposition of eigenfunctions. Specifically, the eigenfunction property
follows from the convolution integral
Now we recognize that

i.e., e a' is an eigenfunction of the system. Using linearity and superposition,

we recognize that if

then

so that

Method 2
We consider the solution of this problem as the superposition of the
response to two signals x 1(t), x 2(t), where x 1(t) is the noncausal part of x(t)
and x 2(t) is the causal part of x(t). That is,
 This allows us to use Laplace transforms, but we must be careful about the
ROCs. Now consider L{xi(t)}, where C{-} denotes the Laplace transform:

Now since the response to x 1(t) is

The pole-zero plot and associated ROC for Yi(s) is shown in Figure S20.5-1.
Next consider the response y2 (t) to x 2(t):

The pole-zero plot and associated ROC for Y2(s) is shown

in Figure S20.5-2.
Solutio
n 7:

We see that the Laplace transform is the Fourier transform of x(t)e -''
from the definition of the Fourier analysis formula.

This result is the inverse Fourier transform, or synthesis equation. So

Solution
8:
Solution
9:
The Laplace transform of an impulse ab(t) is a.Therefore, if we expand a
rational Laplace transform by dividing the denominator into the
numerator, we require a constant term in the expansion. This will occur
only if the numerator has order greater than or equal to the order of the
denominator. Therefore, a necessary condition on the number of zeros is
that it be greater than or equal to the number of poles. This is only a
necessary and not a sufficient condition as it is possible to construct a
rational Laplace transform that has a numerator order greater than the
denominator order and that does not yield a constant term in the
expansion. For example,

which does not have a constant term. Therefore a necessary condition is

that the number of zeros equal or exceed the number of poles.
