Hi ☺️ i have to do a convolution with a periodic signal and a dirac impulse:
x(t)=sen(πt)(u(t)−u(t−2))
h(t)=u(t−1)−u(t−3)
The first is a periodic graph that intersect axis x in points 0 , 1 and 2 (ecc)
The se ing is a rectangle ( Dirac impulse ) that intersect AxiS x in points 1 and 3.

When I sample a certain digital signal with increasing sampling frequency, the fast Fourier transform of the sampled signal becomes finer and finer. (the image follows) Previously I thought higher sampling frequency makes the sampled signal more similar to the original one, so the Fourier...
