Laplace Transform

This lecture presents Laplace Transform (LT) and its region of convergence.  Its relation to Laplace transform is presented. Notable LT properties are reviewed: time shift, convolution, signal differentiation/integration. Its use in defining Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) continuous-time systems transfer function is also presented and stability issues are overviewed. Various types of such systems are presented with examples (e.g., RC electric filters, temporal diffusion systems).

Fourier Transform

This lecture overviews the topics of continuous-time periodic signals, signal frequencies and Fourier Transform (FT).  Its relation to Laplace transform is presented. Notable FT properties are review: time shift, time scaling, convolution, signal differentiation/integration, energy preservation. Its use in defining Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) continuous-time systems frequency response is presented. Various types of such systems, notably low-pass, high-pass, band-pass are presented with examples (e.g., RC and RLC electric filters).
