Convolution for Engineers, Technologists, Scientists, and Other on-PhDs Wm. Hugh Blanton, East Tennessee State University ABSTRACT One of the more important and one of the least understood principles in electronic engineering technology is convolution. The convolution integral provides a convenient mathematical equation that expresses the output of an linear time invariant system based on an arbitrary signal, x(t), and the system's impulse response, h(t). Because the interpretation takes some effort, most instructors take advantage of the linear transformation into the frequency domain where convolution becomes simply multiplication, eg. Laplace and Fourier transforms
