SUMMARY
Any Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) system can indeed be characterized by its impulse response or its eigenvalues. Understanding either the complete impulse response or all eigenvalues is sufficient to fully describe the system's behavior. This conclusion is fundamental in control theory and signal processing, emphasizing the equivalence of these two representations in analyzing LTI systems.
