In this assignment, you will simulate convolution by using Fourier Transform in Matlab.
BACKGROUND:
For continuous-time signals, the Continuous-Time Fourier Transform (CTFT) synthesis and analysis equations are given respectively as below.
1. X(jw) = ∫x(t)e^(-jwt)dt
CTFT describes aperiodic signals as a linear combination of complex exponentials occurring at a continuum of frequencies, while CTFS can represent periodic signals as a weighted sum of complex exponentials occurring at a discrete set of harmonically related frequencies {kwo}.
The response of an LTI system with impulse response h(t) to an input signal x(t) can be determined using Fourier transform as:
y(t) = (2/T) ∫X(jw)H(jw)e^(jwt)dw
Assignment:
Given an LTI system with h(t) = e^(-atu(t)), a > 0, and the input x(t) = e^(-btu(t)), b > 0, implement convolution by Fourier Transform using the symbolic toolbox. Hint: You may use the fourier and ifourier functions in the symbolic toolbox.
Provide your Matlab code in your report and show the output signal y(t) using pretty.
