The bilinear transformation is a mapping for obtaining a rational z-transform Hd(Z) from a rational Laplace transform Hc(s). This mapping has two important properties: 1. If Hc(s) is the Laplace transform of a causal and stable LTI system, then Hd(Z) is the z-transform of a causal and stable LTI system. 2. Certain important characteristics of \(\left|H_{c}(j \omega)\right|\) are preserved in \(\left|H_{d}\left(e^{j \omega}\right)\right|\). In this problem, we illustrate the second of these properties for the case of all-pass filters. (a) Let \(H_{c}(s)=\frac{a-s}{s+a} \text {, }\) where a is real and positive. Show that \(\left|H_{c}(j \omega)\right|=1\) (b) Let us now apply the bilinear transformation to Hc(s) in order to obtain Hd(Z).

(c) Show that if the bilinear transformation is applied to Hc(s) of part (b) in order to obtain Hd(Z), then the following may be asserted about Hd(Z) and Hd(ejw): 1. Hd(Z) has only two poles, both of which are inside the unit circle. 2. Hd(ej0 ) = 1. 3. IHd(ejw)l decreases monotonically as w goes from 0 to TT. 4. The half-power frequency of Hd(ejw) is TT/2.
