Engineering Signal & System CTFT: Find x(t) from X(ω)
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on finding the continuous-time signal x(t) from its continuous-time Fourier transform (CTFT) X(ω). Participants explore the use of Fourier Transform tables to assist in solving the problem, particularly regarding limits involving exponential functions. A specific expression, exp(n(jt-1/2))-1, is analyzed as n approaches infinity, leading to a conclusion that it converges to -1. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding the behavior of exponential functions in Fourier analysis.
