    Finding impulse of a CT system

    Homework Statement A continuous-time system has the input/output relationship y(t) = \int_{-\infty}^{t} (t - \lambda + 2)x(\lambda) d\lambda Determine the impulse response h(t) of the system Homework Equations Convolution theorems y(t) = x(t) * h(t) Where y(t) is the output...

    Fourier representation of CT peridic signals

    I want to find the Fourier coefficients for the following signal: \cos(2 \pi t)^2 Can I simply use the identity?: \frac{1}{2} + \frac{\cos(2 \pi t)}{2} And then use the complex definition: \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4} (\exp{j2 \pi t} + \exp{-j2 \pi t}) From the synthesis equation I can...

    CT Convolutions and their bounds

    This question deals with an example found in Signals and Systems, 2ed, page 99, ex 2.7. But I can summarize it here: EDIT - my latex doesn't seem to work ... x(t) = (1, 0 < t < T) or (0, otherwise) h(t) = (t, 0 < t < 2T) or (0, otherwise) I realize there are five bounds...

    CT Scans vs Ultrasound: What Machine Provides Real-Time Video?

    I know that CT Scans provide still images of various parts of the whole human body. I also know that Ultrasound provides live images and movements of fetuses. Is there a machine/scanner that scans the body and provides real-time video of the organs in operation, including blood-flowing, heart...

    Is the CT Scan of Terri Schiavo Accurate?

    The following CT scan of Terri Schiavo purportedly suggests that her cerebral cortex consisted entirely of fluid at the time the image was made many years ago. http://www.miami.edu/ethics2/schiavo/CT%20scan.png I'm skeptical of the claim because the image is too symmetrical. An injury...

    Are CT Scans More Dangerous Than We Thought?

    I was recently reading pop sci and it revealed the following stats For one full ct scan 1,300: Radiation dose in millirems 1.5 miles: distnace you would need to bee from the Hiroshima atomic explosion to receive an equivalent does 29: radiation does in mrem from smoking pack of...

    Diference between UTC ( CT ) and TDB

    Good afternoon, I have some formulas to calculate ( aprox in most cases ) the diference between UTC ( CT ) and TDB. There are periods that already have a full coverage from the astronomers ( like the period 1600/1620 to ~2000 ). Still, two problems remain: 1) The calculation of a specific...

    What is the best resource for critical thinking on the World Wide Web?

    Best CT on www If you do a google on critical thinking you will find 5 million Web sites. You will also discover the massive effort being made by education to teach Critical Thinking in our schools. The best of these 5 million sites is said to be contained at...
