This experiment aims to write a Matlab program to perform convolution of two signals. Convolution relates the input, output, and impulse response of a linear time-invariant system. The Matlab code takes the length and values of two signals as input, performs convolution by multiplying and summing aligned values, and plots the resulting convolution signal. The experiment helps learn about convolution and how to implement it in Matlab code.

1. Experiment No: 03
Experiment Name: Write a simple Matlab program to perform Convolution of two signals.
Objectives:
 To learn about Convolution of two signals of a Linear Time Invariant (LTI) System.
 To learn about how to perform Convolution using Matlab code.
Theory:
Convolution:
Convolution is a mathematical operation used to express the relation between input and output of
an LTI system. It relates input, output and impulse response of an LTI system as
y(t)=x(t)∗h(t)
Where
y (t) = output of LTI
x (t) = input of LTI
h (t) = impulse response of LTI
In the below figure we can easily understand the process of Convolution of LTI system,

Code of Convolution:
clear all;
close all;
m=input('length ');
for i=1:m
x(i)=input('value ');
end
p=input('initial ');
n=input('length ');
for i=1:n
y(i)=input('value ');
end
q=input('initial ');

2. l=m+n-1;
pp=-(p-1);
qq=-(q-1);
lower=pp+qq;
for i=1:1:l
rr(i)=lower;
lower=lower+1;
end
for i=1:1:l
if i<=m
x(i)=x(i);
else
x(i)=0;
end
end
for i=1:1:l
if i<=n
y(i)=y(i);
else
y(i)=0;
end
end
for j=1:1:l
p1=0; q1=j;
for i=1:1:j
p1=p1+x(q1)*y(i);
q1=q1-1;
end
r(i)=p1;
end
