1.8 LAPLACE TRANSFORMS

 

• The Laplace transform allows us to reverse time. And, as you recall from before the inverse of time is frequency. Because we are normally concerned with response, the Laplace transform is much more useful in system analysis.

 

• The basic Laplace transform equations is shown below,
