The S-domain
The Laplace transform can be used to analyze a large class of continuous-time problem
involving signals that are not absolutely integrable, such as impulse response of an unstable
system.
Whereas, Fourier transform does not exist for signals that are not absolutely integrable
(summable, in discrete-domain).
Let est be a complex exponential with complex frequency s = + j. The real part of s is
the exponential damping factor , and the imaginary part of s is the frequency of the cosine
and sine factor, .
est = et cos(t) + jet sin(t)

where T represents the sampling interval. The analog differentiator with output dy(t)/dt has the system function H(s) = s, while
the digital system that produces the output y(n) y(n 1)/T has the system function H(z) = (1 z 1 )/T . Consequently,
