2R 1L 1C circuit to solve using the convolution integral .. for wikibook circuit analysis

Given that is = 1 + cos(t), find io using the convolution integral.

Outline:

Transfer Function[edit | edit source]

simplify(1/((s+1)*(s + 1 + 1/(s+1))))

Homogeneous Solution[edit | edit source]

Setting the denominator to zero and find the values of s:

solve(s^2 + 2*s + 2)

This means the solution has the form:

Particular Solution[edit | edit source]

After a long time the cap opens and the inductor shorts. The current is split between the two resistors. Each will get 1/2 of the unit step function source which would be 1/2 amp:

Initial Conditions[edit | edit source]

The particular solution still has to apply so at t= ∞:

Initially the current has to be zero in this leg so:

The initial voltage across the cap is zero, and across the leg is zero and across the inductor is zero. So:

f := 1/2 + exp(-t)*((-1/2)*cos(t) + B*sin(t));
g = diff(f,t)

So now:

Impulse Response[edit | edit source]

Taking the derivative of the above

f := 1/2*(1-exp(-t)*(cos(t) + sin(t)));
g = diff(f,t)

get:

Convolution Integral[edit | edit source]

f := exp(x-t)*sin(t-x)*(1 + cos(x));
S =int(f,x=0..t);
