How Do I Apply Parseval's Theorem to a Modulated Signal in the Frequency Domain?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on applying Parseval's Theorem to a modulated signal in the frequency domain, specifically using the equation W(w)=(1/2)[p2(w+6)+p2(w-6)], where p2(w) represents a pulse of width 2. The user seeks clarification on how to compute the integral for Z(ω) using Parseval's relation, which states that the energy in the time domain equals the energy in the frequency domain. The user is advised that while frequency domain calculations can be performed, Parseval's relation may not be applicable in this context.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Parseval's Theorem in signal processing
  • Knowledge of Fourier transforms and frequency domain analysis
  • Familiarity with pulse functions, specifically p2(w)

Alright. So... Conceptually I completely understand what I'm doing. I'm just a bit confused about how, mechanically, to solve this.

I basically have the following:
W(w)=(1/2)[p2(w+6)+p2(w-6)]

Where p2(w) is a pulse of width 2. Of course, w is omega, and the +/-6 is the shift. This is a modulated signal and it's in the frequency domain. Now this is my problem...

w(t) is put into a squaring function, which produces z(t).

In this problem, the frequency domain is infinitely easier to work with than the time domain. So I know I can use Parseval's theorem, the special case for squaring a function. My problem is that I am then presented with the followingI'm using:

[tex]\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}x^2(t)dt=\frac{1}{2\pi}\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}|X(\omega)|^2d\omega[/tex]

Can I say that

[tex] Z(\omega)=\frac{1}{2\pi}\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} | \frac{1}{2} <br /> [ p_{2}(\omega + 4)+p_{2}(\omega - 4)] |^2 d \omega[/tex]?How do I deal with this integral? Do I just simply take the integral of the height of W(w) from -7 to -5 and then from 5 to 7 and just add them?

Am I supposed to end up with T/2, where T=the width of my pulse??Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

The Parseval's relation gives you the concept of law of conservation of energy. Both RHS and LHS are just real numbers. You can use frequency domain stuff to calculate Z(\omega) but not by using Paarseval's relation.
