Continuous Signals and Systems with MATLAB®

About this book

Continuous Signals and Systems with MATLAB ® offers broad, detailed, and focused comprehensive coverage of continuous linear systems, based on basic mathematical principles. It presents many solved problems from various engineering disciplines using analytical tools as well as MATLAB. This book is intended primarily for undergraduate junior and senior electrical, mechanical, aeronautical, and aerospace engineering students. Practicing engineers will also find this book useful.

This book is ideal for use in a one-semester course in continuous linear systems where the instructor can easily cover all of the chapters. Each chapter presents numerous examples that illustrate each concept. Most of the worked-out examples are first solved analytically, and then solved using MATLAB in a clear and understandable fashion.

This book concentrates on explaining the subject matter with easy-to-follow mathematical development and numerous solved examples. The book covers traditional topics and includes an extensive coverage of state-space representation and analysis. The reader does not need to be fluent in MATLAB because the examples are presented in a self-explanatory way.

1.1EXAMPLES OF CONTINUOUS SIGNALS

We experience signals of various types almost on a continual basis in our daily lives. The blowing of the wind is an example of a continuous wave. We can plot the strength of the wind wave, the velocity of the wave, and the distance it travels as functions of time. When we speak, continuous signals are generated. These spoken word signals travel from one place to another so that other people can hear them. These are our familiar sound waves.
When a radar system detects a certain object in the sky, an electromagnetic signal is sent. This signal leaves the radar system and travels the distance in the air until it hits the target object, which then reflects back to the sending radar to be analyzed, where it is decided if the target is present or not. We understand that this electromagnetic signal, whether it is the one being sent or ...
