EE 421G Signals and Systems: Exam 2 Practice problems

1. A rectangle signal is defined as follows:



1 0<t≤T
r(t) = (1)
0 otherwise

(a) What is the Fourier transform at frequency ω = 0 ?


(b) Using the Fourier transform table and and the time-shift property, find the Fourier transform of r(t)
(c) Sketch the magnitude of the Fourier transform of r(t).
(d) Using the Fourier transform properties and the Fourier transform of r(t), find the Fourier transform of
the signal defined below 
 0 t < 0,
b(t) = t 0<t≤T (2)
T t>T

2. A signal s(t) = 10 + cos(2πt) + 10 sin(6πt) − 5 sin(10πt) is passed through an linear time-invariant system for
which the Fourier transform of its impulse response is given by:

1 −10 < ω ≤ 10
H(jω) = (3)
0 otherwise

(a) What is the Fourier transform of the output of the system? Provide a sketch.
(b) The output of the system is connected in cascade with another LTI system with impulse response δ(t− 41 ).
What is the Fourier transform of the output of the overall system?
3. Consider the following periodic signal:
∞
X
x(t) = (−1)k δ(t − kT ) (4)
k=−∞

(a) Sketch the signal.


(b) Find the Fourier series coefficients of x(t)
(c) What is the Fourier transform of x(t)?
sin 14 πt
(d) The signal x(t) is passed through LTI system with impulse response h(t) = πt . What is the Fourier
transform of the output of the system?
Justify your answers!
4. Using the convolution property of the Fourier transform, compute the unit-step response (the output of the
system when the input signal is a unit step function u(t)) of a continuous-time LTI system with impulse
response given by h(t) = e−4t u(t). Justify your answers!

5. Find the Fourier transform of a signal s(t) defined as follows:

cos(πt) − 21 < t < 21



s(t) = (5)
0 otherwise

Hint: sketch s(t) and try writing s(t) as cos(πt) times a rectangular pulse.

6. A message signal m(t) = sin(4πt)


πt is multiplied by a carrier signal c1 (t) = cos(10πt) to get an amplitude
modulated signal s(t) = m(t)c(t). The signal s(t) is then multiplied by the signal c2 (t) = cos(8πt) to obtain
x(t) = s(t)c2 (t). Find and sketch the Fourier transform X(jω) of x(t).
