Question

The Fourier transform of a continuous-time signal x(t) is given by \(X\left( \omega \right) = \frac{1}{{{{\left( {10 + j\omega } \right)}^2}}}, - \infty < \omega < \infty ,\) where \(j = \sqrt { - 1} \) and ω denotes frequency. Then the value of |ln x(t)| at t = 1 is _____ (up to 1 decimal place). (In denotes the logarithm to base e)

Concept:

\(e^{-at}\rm \overset{F.T.}{\leftrightarrow}\frac{1}{a+j\omega}\)

Frequency differentiation property

\(tx(t)\rm \overset{F.T.}{\leftrightarrow}j\dfrac{d}{d\omega}x(\omega)\)

Explanation:

\(X\left( \omega \right) = \frac{1}{{{{\left( {10 + j\omega } \right)}^2}}}\)

By applying inverse Fourier transform,

⇒ x(t) = t e-10t u(t)

\(x\left( t \right) = {e^{ - at}}u\left( t \right) \leftrightarrow \frac{1}{{a + j\omega }}\)

By using frequency differentiation property,

\(t\;{x_1}\left( t \right) = t{e^{ - at}}u\left( t \right) \leftrightarrow j\frac{d}{{d\omega }} \times \left( \omega \right) = \frac{1}{{{{\left( {a + j\omega } \right)}^2}}}\)

\(\Rightarrow t{e^{ - 10t}}u\left( t \right) \leftrightarrow \frac{1}{{{{\left( {10 + j\omega } \right)}^2}}}\)

x(t) = te-10t u(t)          

Taking logarithm (to base e ) on both sides,                              

\(\left| {lnx\left( t \right)} \right| = \left| {ln\left[ {t{e^{ - 10t}}u\left( t \right)} \right]} \right|\)

\(at\;t = 1, = \left| {ln\left[ {{e^{ - 10}}} \right]} \right| = \left| { - 10} \right| = 10\)
