2. Inverse Laplace Transform Fix σ ROC and apply the inverse Fourier But s = σ + jω (σfixed) ds =jdω

3. Inverse Laplace Transforms Via Partial Fraction Expansion and Properties Example: Three possible ROCs corresponding to three different signals Recall

4. ROC I:Left-sided signal. ROC II:Two-sided signal, has Fourier Transform. ROC III:Right-sided signal.

5. Properties of Laplace Transforms Many parallel properties of the CTFT, but for Laplace transforms we need to determine implications for the ROC For example: Linearity ROC at least the intersection of ROCs of X1(s) and X2(s) ROC can be bigger (due to pole-zero cancellation) ROC entire s-

6. Time Shift

7. Time-Domain Differentiation ROC could be bigger than the ROC of X(s), if there is pole-zero cancellation. E.g., s-Domain Differentiation

8. Convolution Property x(t) y(t)=h(t) x(t) h(t) For Then ROC of Y(s) = H(s)X(s): at least the overlap of the ROCs of H(s) & X(s) ROC could be empty if there is no overlap between the two ROCs E.g. x(t)=e t u(t),and h(t)=-e -tu (-t) ROC could be larger than the overlap of the two.

9. The System Function of an LTI System x(t) y(t) h(t) The system function characterizes the system System properties correspond to properties of H(s) and its ROC A first example:
