A Continuous Time, Linear, Time-Invariant System
Consider the system $ y(t)=2x(t)-x(t-2) $.
Unit Impulse Response
Let $ x(t)=\delta(t) $. Then $ h(t)=2\delta(t)-\delta(t-2) $.
System Function
As discussed in class, the system function is
$ H(s)=\int_{-\infty}^\infty h(\tau)e^{-s\tau}d\tau $
In this case, we can apply the sifting property to arrive at the system function quite easily. After applying the property, we arrive at $ H(s)=2-e^{-2s} $. One might recognize this is the Laplace transform of the impulse response.
Response to a Signal from Question 1
I will use my signal from Question 1.
$ x(t)=7\sin(2t)+(1+j)\cos(3t)=\frac{1+j}{2}e^{-3j}-\frac{7}{2j}e^{-2j}+\frac{7}{2j}e^{2j}+\frac{1+j}{2}e^{3j} $
