    EE 475 Fall 2007 Midterm Exam #1

    Name
    Instructions:

    1. This is a closed-book and closed-notes exam for individual work. You may have
    one sheet of formulae of size no larger than US letter. Calculator is not allowed.
    2. Time for the exam is 50 minutes.
    3. Do all problems. Each problem is worth 5 points, for a total of 100 points.

    Problems:

    1. An LTI system has unit impulse response shown below: h(t)


    1
    Find the systems input output transfer function H(s).

    2 t

    2. For the system given in problem 1, determine if the system is BIBO stable.

    3. The unit step response of the system in problem 1 is given in the s-domain by
    1 e 2 s
    y ( s) . Find the final value y() if it exists.
    s2
    4. For the signal in problem 3, find its initial value y(0).

    s 1
    5. A system has transfer function H ( s ) . Find all of its poles and zeros,
    s 3s 2
    2

    including those at infinity.

    6. Is the system in problem 5 BIBO stable?

    7. At t=0, all variables in the system in problem 5 are zero. After t=0, a bounded input
    sin(2t) is applied. If the system output settles into a sinusoidal steady state, compute
    that steady state response. If it does not, describe what happens.
    8. For the block diagram below, draw the equivalent signal flow graph using 5 nodes:
    input, output, and one node for each of the 3 junctions.

    the loop gain product for each such pair.

    11. In the signal flow graph of problem 10, draw the remaining signal flow graph after we
    have removed the forward path involving G6. Find the determinant D for the graph.
    12. Given the circuit below. v is input and the voltage y is output. Use the two capacitor
    voltages as state variables. Derive the state space model for the circuit.

    13. For the spring mass damper system below, the applied force is input and the position
    of the mass is output. Develop the input output model in the form of a single ordinary
    differential equation. Find the input output transfer function.

    19. Given M (t ) . Is M(t) a state transition matrix? If it is, find A
    0 e t
    such that M(t) = exp(At); if not, explain why not.
    20. Suppose you are given a system in state space model and the A, B, C, D matrices has
    been entered in to Matlab numerically. Write the sequence of Matlab commands that
    you would use to compute the transfer function, the state transition matrix, and the
    unit impulse response. Details of the syntax can be excused if you describe how you
    can double check you syntax.
