Problem 1. (Properties of FT) Let X(jω) and Y (jω) denote the Fourier transform
(FT) of x(t) and y(t) respectively. Using the FT and inverse FT formulas, prove the following
properties of FT.

1. Linearity property: for any complex numbers a and b, the FT of ax(t)+by(t) is equivalent
to aX(jω) + bY (jω).

2. Convolution property: the FT of x(t) ∗ y(t) is equivalent to X(jω) · Y (jω) (∗ denotes the
convolution operator.)

3. Frequency shift property: the FT of x(t) · ejγt is equivalent to X(j(ω − γ)).

Problem 2. Suppose x[n] and y[n] are discrete time periodic signals with period N . Let
X[k] and Y [k] denote the discrete time Fourier series (DTFS) of x[n] and y[n] respectively.

1. Prove the linearity property of DTFS: for any real numbers a and b, the DTFS of a ·
x[n] + b · y[n] is equivalent to a · X[k] + b · Y [k].

2. Prove the time shift property of DTFS: for any integer n0 , the DTFS of the delayed signal

x[n − n0 ] is equivalent to e−jk N n0 X[k].

Problem 3. Consider a continuous time system H with input-output relation:
