Mid Sem

The document is a midterm exam for a Signals and Systems course. It contains 6 questions testing concepts of convolution, Fourier series, Fourier transforms, and linear time-invariant systems. Question 1 has two parts: (a) asks to convolve two signals graphically and (b) asks to convolve two signals analytically. Question 2 has two parts: (a) asks to find the Fourier series for a periodic signal and plot the amplitude spectra of the first 4 harmonics, and (b) asks to find the exponential Fourier series for another periodic signal and plot the magnitude and phase spectra of the first 4 harmonics.

and equations used. [10M]

(b) Find the exponential Fourier series for the periodic signal 𝑥(𝑡) = 𝑒 −𝑡 with time period T =1

missing in the plot zero marks will be awarded). Show the steps and equations used. [15M]
