3Intro to Laplace Transform
Let x(t) be the input signal and y(t) the output
signal to a generic circuit.
In the time-domain they are generally related by
an ODE with constant coefficients arising from
either a KCL or KVL equation.
Direct solution of the ODE will provide the
solution for the circuit.
Using the Laplace transform will convert the ODE
into a complex algebraic equation whose solution
is generally easier. The inverse Laplace
transform will then generate the sought solution
y(t).

10Inverse Laplace Transform
Let a Laplace transform X(s) be a rational
function of the form
The roots of the numerator B(s) are called zeros,
and the roots of the denominator A(s) are called
poles.

11Inverse Laplace Transform
Case 1 m lt n (more poles than roots, all
distinct)
If m lt n, a partial-fraction expansion of the
rational X(s) leads to
(all distinct poles)
if
Then the Inverse Laplace Transform of of the form
for t gt 0.
The coefficient Ai are called the residues of the
rational polynomial.
In MATLAB you can use the following statement to
find both poles and residues
Ai,si residue(B,A)
where B and A are vectors containing the
coefficients of the respective polynomials.

distinct)
