Parsevals Theorem Parsevals theorem relates the
energy associated with a time-domain function of
finite energy (i.e., an energy signal) to the
Fourier transform of the function.

- Notes on Parsevals theorem
- For real functions, f(t), F(w) is even and
F(w) F(-w), so - Recall that our definition for energy is not
dimensionally correct. However, if f(t) v(t)
or i(t) then the energy could be viewed as energy
for a 1O load as shown below - Parsevals theorem gives a physical
interpretation of F(w)2 - F(w)2 is an energy density in joules per
hertz (to a 1O load) - Energy of the frequency range (w1, w2) can be
calculated as follows

Bandwidth of a filter Recall in our earlier
discussions of band pass filters, that we defined
the bandwidth B of a filter as the width of the
passband, typically defined by the 3dB points, as
illustrated below.
Bandwidth of a signal Suppose that now we
define the bandwidth of a signal as positive
range of frequency over which F(w) extends, as
illustrated below on the left. For any practical
signal, F(w) extends to ?, so a practical
estimate of bandwidth might be the range where
most (perhaps 95?) of the signal energy lies.
This is sometimes called the essential bandwidth
of the signal.

- Example If f(t) i(t) 50e-10tu(t) mA is the
current delivered to a 1 O resistor - a) Find total energy in the time domain
- Find total energy in the frequency domain
- Find the percentage of energy for w lt 10 rad/s
- Find the bandwidth, B, of the signal (i.e., the
value of w such that 95 of the energy is
delivered from 0 to w) - Sketch F(w)2 and the results from parts c and d.

Bandwidth of sinc(x) Recall that the function
rect(t/?) is an important function and has the
following Fourier transform
7Lecture 24 EGR 261 Signals and Systems
Bandwidth of sinc(x) Using the result that the
essential bandwidth is approximately 1/? for a
gated pulse of width ?
The relationships above are illustrated on the
following page.
