Impulse Response
• Impulse response of a system is response of the
system to an input that is a unit impulse (i.e., a
Dirac delta functional in continuous time)

• But we know how to calculate the impulse
response ( h(t) ) of a system expressed as a
differential equation
x t x t d x h t d Y (t )
• Therefore, we know how to calculate the system
output for any input, x(t)

Graphical Convolution Methods
• From the convolution integral, convolution is
equivalent to
