EXAMPLE 3.3.3
A network function is given by
H(s)=
2 (s+ 2 )
(s+ 1 )(s+ 3 )
(a) Forx(t)=δ(t), obtainy(t).
(b) Forx(t)=u(t), obtainy(t).
(c) Forx(t)=e−^4 t, obtainy(t).
(d) Express the differential equation that relatesx(t) andy(t).
Solution
(a) Forx(t)=δ(t), X(s)=1. Hence,
Y(s)=H(s)X(s)=H(s)=
2 (s+ 2 )
(s+ 1 )(s+ 3 )
=
K 1

K 2
s+ 3
where
K 1 =
2 (− 1 + 2 )
− 1 + 3
= 1
K 2 =
2 (− 3 + 2 )
− 3 + 1
= 1
Thus,
y(t)=e−t+e−^3 t
Note thatL−^1 [H(s)] yields the natural response of the system.
(b) Forx(t)=u(t), X(s)= 1 /s. Hence,
Y(s)=H(s)X(s)=H(s)
