An important property of the frequency response H(jw) of a continuous-time LTI system with a real, causal impulse response h(t) is that H(jw) is completely specified by its real part, (Jl.e{H(jw )}. The current problem is concerned with deriving and examining some of the implications of this property, which is generally referred to as real-part sufficiency. (a) Prove the property of real-part sufficiency by examining the signal he(t), which is the even part of h(t). What is the Fourier transform of he(t)? Indicate how h(t) can be recovered from he(t). (b) If the real part of the frequency response of a causal system is (Jl.e{H(jw )} = cos w, what is h(t)? (c) Show that h(t) can be recovered from h 0 (t), the odd part of h(t), for every value of t except t = 0. Note that if h(t) does not contain any singularities [o(t), u1 (t), u2(t), etc.] at t = 0, then the frequency response J +oc H(jw) = -oc h(t)e- jwt dt will not change if h(t) is set to some arbitrary finite value at the single point t = 0. Thus, in this case, show that H(jw) is also completely specified by its imaginary part.

Let us consider a system with a real and causal impulse response h(t) that does not have any singularities at t = 0. In Problem 4.47, we saw that either the real or the imaginary part of H(jw) completely determines H(jw ). In this problem we derive an explicit relationship between HR(jw) and H1(jw ), the real and imaginary parts of H(jw). (a) To begin, note that since h(t) is causal, h(t) = h(t)u(t), (P4.48-l) except perhaps at t = 0. Now, since h(t) contains no singularities at t = 0, the Fourier transforms of both sides of eq. (P4.48-l) must be identical. Use this fact, together with the multiplication property, to show that H( . ) - 1 J+x H(j'YJ)d JW - -.- --- 'YJ. j7T -X w- 'YJ (P4.48-2) Use eq.

(b) The operation ( ) _ 1 J +x X( T) d yt-- --T 7T -X t- T (P4.48-3) is called the Hilbert transform. We have just seen that the real and imaginary parts of the transform of a real, causal impulse response h(t) can be determined from one another using the Hilbert transform. Now considereq. (P4.48-3), and regard y(t) as the output of an LTI system with input x(t). Show that the frequency response of this system is H( . ) = { - j, w > 0 JW . < o ], w (c) What is the Hilbert transform of the signal x(t) = cos 3t?

Let H(jw) be the frequency response of a continuous-time LTI system, and suppose that H(jw) is real, even, and positive. Also, assume that max{H(jw )} = H(O). w (a) Show that: (i) The impulse response, h(t), is real. (ii) max{ih(t)i} = h(O). Hint: If f(t. w) is a complex function of two variables, then (b) One important concept in system analysis is the bandwidth of an LTI system. There are many different mathematical ways in which to define bandwidth, but they are related to the qualitative and intuitive idea that a system with frequency response G(jw) essentially "stops" signals of the form eiwt for values of w where G(jw) vanishes or is small and "passes" those complex exponentials in the band of frequency where G(jw) is not small. The width of this band is the bandwidth. These ideas will be made much clearer in Chapter 6, but for now we will consider a special definition of bandwidth for those systems with frequency responses that have the properties specified previously for H(jw ). Specifically, one definition of the bandwidth Bw of such a system is the width of the rectangle of height H(jO) that has an area equal to the area under H(jw ). This is illustrated in Figure P4.49(a). Note that since H(jO) = maxw H(jw ), the frequencies within the band indicated in the figure are those for which H (jw) is largest. The exact choice of the width in the figure is, of course, a bit arbitrary, but we have chosen one definition that allows us to compare different systems and to make precise a very important relationship between time and frequency. What is the bandwidth of the system with frequency response H(jw) H(O) H(jw) . { = 1, 0, lwl < w? lwi>W. (c) Find an expression for the bandwidth Bw in terms of H(jw ). (d) Let s(t) denote the step response of the system set out in part (a). An important measure of the speed of response of a system is the rise time, which, like the bandwidth, has a qualitative definition, leading to many possible mathematical definitions, one of which we will use. Intuitively, the rise time of a system is a measure of how fast the step response rises from zero to its final value, s(oo) = lim s(t). (-H:IJ Thus, the smaller the rise time, the faster is the response of the system. For the system under consideration in this problem, we will define the rise time as s(oo) tr = h(O) Since s' (t) = h(t), and also because of the property that h(O) = maxt h(t), tr is the time it would take to go from zero to s( oo) while maintaining the maximum rate of change of s(t). This is illustrated in Figure P4.49(b ). Find an expression for tr in terms of H(jw ). s(t) (b) Figure P4.49b (e) Combine the results of parts (c) and (d) to show that Bwtr = 27r. (P4.49-l) Thus, we cannot independently specify both the rise time and the bandwidth of our system. For example, eq. (P4.49-l) implies that, if we want a fast system (tr small), the system must have a large bandwidth. This is a fundamental trade-off that is of central importance in many problems of system design.

(a) Consider two LTI systems with impulse responses h(t) and g(t), respectively, and suppose that these systems are inverses of one another. Suppose also that the systems have frequency responses denoted by H(jw) and G(jw ), respectively. What is the relationship between H(jw) and G(jw )? (b) Consider the continuous-time LTI system with frequency response H(jw) = { 1 0, 2 < iwl < 3 otherwise (i) Is it possible to find an input x(t) to this system such that the output is as depicted in Figure P4.50? If so, find x(t). If not, explain why not. (ii) Is this system invertible? Explain your answer. (c) Consider an auditorium with an echo problem. As discussed in Problem 2.64, we can model the acoustics of the auditorium as an LTI system with an impulse response consisting of an impulse train, with the kth impulse in the train corresponding to the kth echo. Suppose that in this particular case the impulse response is h(t) = L e-kT 8(t- kT), k=O where the factor e-kT represents the attenuation of the kth echo. In order to make a high-quality recording from the stage, the effect of the echoes must be removed by performing some processing of the sounds sensed by the recording equipment. In Problem 2.64, we used convolutional techniques to consider one example of the design of such a processor (for a different acoustic model). In the current problem, we will use frequency-domain techniques. Specifically, let G(jw) denote the frequency response of the LTI system to be used to process the sensed acoustic signal. Choose G(jw) so that the echoes are completely removed and the resulting signal is a faithful reproduction of the original stage sounds. (d) Find the differential equation for the inverse of the system with impulse response h(t) = 2 O(t) + UJ (t).

Inverse systems frequently find application in problems involving imperfect measuring devices. For example, consider a device for measuring the temperature of a liquid. It is often reasonable to model such a device as an LTI system that, because of the response characteristics of the measuring element (e.g., the mercury in athermometer), does not respond instantaneously to temperature changes. In particular, assume that the response of this device to a unit step in temperature is s(t) = (1 - e -r12 )u(t). (P4.52-1) (a) Design a compensatory system that, when provided with the output of the measuring device, produces an output equal to the instantaneous temperature of the liquid. (b) One of the problems that often arises in using inverse systems as compensators for measuring devices is that gross inaccuracies in the indicated temperature may occur if the actual output of the measuring device produces errors due to small, erratic phenomena in the device. Since there always are such sources of error in real systems, one must take them into account. To illustrate this, consider a measuring device whose overall output can be modeled as the sum of the response of the measuring device characterized by eq. (P4.52-1) and an interfering "noise" signal n(t). Such a model is depicted in Figure P4.52(a), where we have also included the inverse system of part (a), which now has as its input the overall output of the measuring device. Suppose that n(t) = sin wt. What is the contribution of n(t) to the output of the inverse system, and how does this output change as w is increased? (c) The issue raised in part (b) is an important one in many applications of LTI system analysis. Specifically, we are confronted with the fundamental tradeoff between the speed of response of the system and the ability of the system to attenuate high-frequency interference. In part (b) we saw that this tradeoff implied that, by attempting to speed up the response of a measuring device (by means of an inverse system), we produced a system that would also amplify corrupting sinusoidal signals. To illustrate this concept further, consider a measuring device that responds instantaneously to changes in temperature, but that also is corrupted by noise. The response of such a system can be modeled, as depicted in Figure P4.52(b ), as the sum of the response of a perfect measuring qevice and a corrupting signal n(t). Suppose that we wish to design a compensatory system that will slow down the response to actual temperature variations, but also will attenuate the noise n(t). Let the impulse response of this system be h(t) = ae -at u(t). Choose a so that the overall system of Figure P4.52(b) responds as quickly as possible to a step change in temperature, subject to the constraint that the amplitude of the portion of the output due to the noise n(t) = sin 6t is no larger than 114.

As mentioned in the text, the techniques of Fourier analysis can be extended to signals having two independent variables. As their one-dimensional counterparts do in some applications, these techniques play an important role in other applications, such as image processing. In this problem, we introduce some of the elementary ideas of two-dimensional Fourier analysis. Let x(t1, t2) be a signal that depends upon two independent variables t 1 and t2. The two-dimensional Fourier transform of x(t1, t2) is defined as X(jw,, jw2) = L+: L+xx x(t,, t2)e-j(w,t, +w,t,) dt, dt2. (a) Show that this double integral can be performed as two successive onedimensional Fourier transforms, first in t 1 with t2 regarded as fixed and then in t2. (b) Use the result of part (a) to determine the inverse transform-that is, an expression for x(tJ, t2) in terms of X(jw1, jw2). (c) Determine the two-dimensional Fourier transforms of the following signals: (i) x(t1, t2) = e-t1 +2t2 u(t1 - 1)u(2 - t2) { e-1t~l-lt2l, if -1 < t1 ::; 1 and -1 ::; t2 ::; 1 (n) x(t1, t2) = O, otherwise (iii) x(t1 , t2 ) = { 0 e-lt1 Ht2 1, ifhO ::; .t1 ::; 1 or 0 ::; t2 ::; 1 (or both) , ot erw1se (iv) x(t1, t2) as depicted in Figure P4.53.
