Finding impulse of a CT system

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on determining the impulse response h(t) of a continuous-time system defined by the input/output relationship y(t) = ∫_{−∞}^{t} (t - λ + 2)x(λ) dλ. To find h(t), participants suggest expressing the convolution as an integral and comparing it with the given equation. This approach leads to identifying h(t - λ) and ultimately deriving h(t) from the integral form.

Homework Statement


A continuous-time system has the input/output relationship

y(t) = \int_{-\infty}^{t} (t - \lambda + 2)x(\lambda) d\lambda

Determine the impulse response h(t) of the system

Homework Equations


Convolution theorems

y(t) = x(t) * h(t)
Where y(t) is the output, x(t) is the input and h(t) is the impulse response


The Attempt at a Solution


I have absolutely no clue how to obtain the impulse response, going backwards in a CT domain from the given equation above. Can anyone give me some hints to start me off?

Express the convolution as an integral. Compare this integral with the problem statement and obtain a function of the form h(t-\lambda). It should not be too difficult then to determine h(t).
