Consider that we want to perform the convolution of two continuous-time
signals in time domain and generate the output using Matlab software as a
tool. The two signals are defined below: The input signal, x(t) = A, for 0 ≤ t ≤
T1 and the impulse response of the system, h(t) = B, for 0 ≤ t ≤ T2. Where A,
B, T1 and T2 are given real constants and A ≠ B. Answer the following
questions for the following two cases, a) when T1 ≠ T2 and b) when T1 = T2
= T:
a) For what values of the time, t the result of convolution, i.e., the output,
y(t) = x(t) * h(t) = h(t) * x(t) is completely zero.
b) For what values of the time, t the result of convolution, i.e., the output,
, y(t) = x(t) * h(t) = h(t) * x(t) is Not zero.
c) Compute and draw the output, y(t) using Matlab for all values of time,
t using appropriate real values of A, B, T1 and T2 .
d) Can we get the result for case b) from the result of case a), if yes,
then, kindly specify how we can achieve it?
e) How can we verify the computations that these are valid? Briefly
explain.
f) How can the above method and computations be modified for discrete
time convolutions in discrete domain? Kindly illustrate the steps
involved and draw the discrete output, y[n] for the above two cases.
g) Make a comparison of the two methods used for performing Anolog
and discrete convolutions in the form of a table?
