Exercise 6.1
Suppose the output \(y(t)\) of a system is related to the input \(u(t)\) via the following relation:
\[y(t)=\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-(t-s)} u(s) d s\nonumber\]
Verify that the model is linear, time-varying, non-causal, and not memoryless.
Exercise 6.2
Suppose the input-output relation of a system is given by
\[y(t)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}
u(t) & \text { if }|u(t)| \leq 1 \\
\frac{u(t)}{\mid u(t)} \mid & \text { if }|u(t)|>1
\end{array}\right.\nonumber\]
This input-output relation represents a saturation element. Is this map nonlinear? Is it memoryless?
Exercise 6.3
Consider a system modeled as a map from \(u(t)\) to \(y(t)\), and assume you know that when
\[u(t)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}
1 & \text { for } 1 \leq t \leq 2 \\
0 & \text { otherwise }
\end{array}\right.\nonumber\]
the corresponding output is
\[y(t)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}
e^{t-1}-e^{t-2} & \text { for } t \leq 1 \\
2-e^{1-t}-e^{t-2} & \text { for } 1 \leq t \leq 2 \\
e^{2-t}-e^{1-t} & \text { for } t \geq 2
\end{array}\right.\nonumber\]
In addition, the system takes the zero input to the zero output. Is the system causal? Is it memoryless?
A particular mapping that is consistent with the above experiment is described by
\[y(t)=\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-|t-s|} u(s) d s\ \tag{6.24}\]
Is the model linear? Is it time-invariant?
Exercise 6.4
For each of the following maps, determine whether the model is (a) linear, (b) timeinvariant, (c) causal, (d) memoryless.
- \[y(t)=\int_{0}^{t}(t-s)^{3} u(s) d s\nonumber\]
- \[y(t)=1+ \int_{0}^{t}(t-s)^{3} u(s) d s\nonumber\]
- \[y(t)=u^{3}\tag{t}\]
- \[y(t)=\int_{0}^{t} e^{-t s} u(s) d s\nonumber\]
