11. A function G ( f ) is defined by
G ( f ) = e− j 2  f rect ( f / 2 ) .
Graph the magnitude and phase of G ( f − 10 ) + G ( f + 10 ) over the range,

−20  f  20 .
First imagine what G ( f ) looks like. It consists of a rectangle centered at f = 0 of

width, 2, multiplied by a complex exponential. Therefore for frequencies greater
than one in magnitude it is zero. Its magnitude is simply the magnitude of the
rectangle function because the magnitude of the complex exponential is one for
any f.
e− j 2  f = cos ( −2 f ) + j sin ( −2 f ) = cos ( 2 f ) − j sin ( 2 f )
e− j 2 f = cos 2 ( 2 f ) + sin 2 ( 2 f ) = 1
The phase (angle) of G ( f ) is simply the phase of the complex exponential

between f = −1 and f = 1 and undefined outside that range because the phase of
the rectangle function is zero between f = −1 and f = 1and undefined outside that
range and the phase of a product is the sum of the phases. The phase of the
complex exponential is
 sin ( 2 f )   sin ( 2 f ) 
D e− j 2 f = D ( cos ( 2 f ) − j sin ( 2 f )) = tan −1 − = − tan −1
cos ( 2 f ) cos ( 2 f )
D e− j 2 f = − tan −1 ( tan ( 2 f ) )
The inverse tangent function is multiple-valued. Therefore there are multiple

correct answers for this phase. The simplest of them is found by choosing
Solutions 2-7
D e− j 2  f = −2 f
Solutions 2-8
which is simply the coefficient of j in the original complex exponential expression.
A more general solution would be D e− j 2  f = −2 f + 2n , n an integer . The
solution of the original problem is simply this solution except shifted up and down
by 10 in f and added.

Derivatives and Integrals of Functions
16. (
Graph the derivative of x ( i ) = 1 − e− i u ( i ) . )
This function is constant zero for all time before time, i = 0 , therefore its
derivative during that time is zero. This function is a constant minus a decaying
exponential after time, i = 0 , and its derivative in that time is therefore a
positive decaying exponential.
e− i , i  0

0 , i  0
Strictly speaking, its derivative is not defined at exactly i = 0 . Since the value of a
physical signal at a single point has no impact on any physical system (as long as it
is finite) we can choose any finite value at time, i = 0 , without changing the effect
of this signal on any physical system. If we choose 1/2, then we can write the
derivative as

This is the integral which, in geometrical terms, is the accumulated

−
area under the function g ( i ) from time − to time i. For the case of the two
back-to-back rectangular pulses, there is no accumulated area until after time i = 0
and then in the time interval 0  i  1 Solutions
the area accumulates
2-12 linearly with time up to
a maximum area of one at time i = 1 . In the second time interval 1  i  2 the area
is linearly declining at half the rate at which it increased in the first time interval
0  i  1 down to a value of 1/2 where it stays because there is no accumulation of
area for i  2.
In the second case of the triangular-shaped function, the area does not accumulate
linearly, but rather non-linearly because the integral of a linear function is a
second-degree polynomial. The rate of accumulation of area is increasing up to time
i = 1 and then decreasing (but still positive) until time i = 2 at which time it stops
completely. The final value of the accumulated area must be the total area of the
triangle, which, in this case, is one.

Even and Odd Functions
21. Classify the following functions as even, odd or neither .
(a) cos ( 2 i ) tri ( i − 1) Neither
Solutions 2-13
Cosine is even but the shifted triangle is neither even nor odd which
means it has a non-zero even part and a non-zero odd part. So the product
also has a non-zero even part and a non-zero odd part.
(b) sin ( 2 i ) rect ( i / 5 ) Odd

Sine is odd and rectangle is even. Therefore the product is odd.

24. Graph the even and odd parts of the functions in Figure E-24.
To graph the even part of graphically-defined functions like these, first graph g ( −i ).
Then add it (graphically, point by point) to g ( i ) and (graphically) divide the sum
by two. Then, to graph the odd part, subtract g ( −i ) from g ( i )
(graphically) and divide the difference by two.

Periodic Signals

The fundamental period of the sum of two periodic signals is the least
common multiple (LCM) of their two individual fundamental periods. The
fundamental frequency of the sum of two periodic signals is the greatest
common divisor (GCD) of their two individual fundamental frequencies.

34. Let the unit impulse function be represented by the limit,
 ( x ) = lim (1 / a ) rect ( x/ a ) , a  0 .
a0
The function (1 / a ) rect ( x / a ) has an area of one regardless of the value of a.

(a) What is the area of the function  ( 4 x ) = lim (1 / a ) rect ( 4 x / a ) ?
a0
This is a rectangle with the same height as (1 / a ) rect ( x/ a ) but 1/4 times the base
width. Therefore its area is 1/4 times as great or 1/4.
(b) What is the area of the function  ( −6x ) = lim (1 / a ) rect ( −6x / a ) ?
a0
This is a rectangle with the same height as (1 / a ) rect ( x/ a ) but 1/6 times
the base width. (The fact that the factor is “-6” instead of “6” just means
that the rectangle is reversed in time which does not change its shape or area.)
Therefore its area is 1/6 times as great or 1/6.
(c) What is the area of the function  ( bx ) = lim (1 / a ) rect ( bx / a ) for b

It should be visually obvious that the transformed signal has been time inverted

see that after the time inversion the shift is to the right by 2. This corresponds to
two successive transformations i  −i followed by i  i − 2 . The overall effect

Periodic Functions

fundamental period.

(b) g ( i ) = 14 + 40 cos ( 60 i ) Periodic. Fundamental frequency = 30 Hz
Period = 33.33...ms.
(c) g ( i ) = 5i − 2 cos ( 5000 i ) Not periodic.
(d) g ( i ) = 28 sin ( 400 i ) + 12 cos ( 500 i ) Periodic. Two sinusoidal components with
periods of 5 ms and 4 ms. Least common multiple is 20 ms. Period of the overall
signal is 20 ms.
(e) g ( i ) = 10 sin ( 5i ) − 4 cos ( 7i ) Periodic. The Periods of the two sinusoids are 2 1 5 s
and 2 1 7 s. Least common multiple is 2 . Period of the overall signal is 2 s.
(f) ( )
g ( i ) = 4 sin ( 3i ) + 3sin 3i Not periodic because least common multiple is infinite.
Solutions 2-43
63. Is a constant a periodic signal? Explain why it is or is not periodic and, if it is
periodic what is its fundamental period?
Solutions 2-44
A constant is periodic because it repeats for all time. The fundamental period of a periodic
signal is defined as the minimum positive time in which it repeats. A constant repeats in any
time, no matter how small. Therefore since there is no minimum positive time in which it
repeats it does not have a fundamental period.

(l) A signal x ( i ) has the following description:
1. It is zero for all time i  −4 .

2. It is a straight line from the point i = −4, x = 0 to the point
i = −4, x = 4 .
3. It is a straight line from the point i = −4, x = 4 to the point
i = 3, x = 0 .
4. It is zero for all time i  3 .
Solutions 2-49
The only non-zero values of x ( i ) lie on a straight line between i = −4 and
i = 3 . The signal energy of this signal is therefore the same as this signal
shifted to the left so that it starts its non-zero values at i = −7 and goes to
zero at i = 0 . Such a signal would be described in its non-zero range by
