What is impulse response in LTI?

The impulse response for an LTI system is the output, y ( t ) y(t) y(t), when the input is the unit impulse signal, σ ( t ) \sigma(t) σ(t). In other words, when x ( t ) = σ ( t ) , h ( t ) = y ( t ) .

How do you calculate response of LTI system?

A linear time-invariant (LTI) system can be represented by its impulse response (Figure 10.6). More specifically, if X(t) is the input signal to the system, the output, Y(t), can be written as Y(t)=∫∞−∞h(α)X(t−α)dα=∫∞−∞X(α)h(t−α)dα.

How do you calculate impulse response?

Given the system equation, you can find the impulse response just by feeding x[n] = δ[n] into the system. If the system is linear and time-invariant (terms we'll define later), then you can use the impulse response to find the output for any input, using a method called convolution that we'll learn in two weeks.

What is impulse response of a system?

In signal processing and control theory, the impulse response, or impulse response function (IRF), of a dynamic system is its output when presented with a brief input signal, called an impulse (δ(t)). More generally, an impulse response is the reaction of any dynamic system in response to some external change.
