Hi Piyush, Sorry I'm late to the party here, but maybe our white papers on this topic mentioned in my blog posting will help? http://signal-integrity.tm.agilent.com/2009/kramers-kronig-in-pictures/ -- Colin -----Original Message----- From: si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of piyush bhatt Sent: Saturday, May 18, 2013 6:47 AM To: si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [SI-LIST] Causality Condition -why real and imaginary part of a Frequency response of causal system need to be even and odd respectively Hi All An LTI system is causal if and only if h(t)=0 for t<0. As derivation goes h(t)=h(t)sgn(t).Taking Freq transform both side and doing some manipulations.We get to point that H(jw) = Hilbert transform of itself. Then they say we can divide H(jw) into real and imaginary part.And real part will be even function and imaginary part will be odd function. Can you tell me why real part will be even function and imaginary part will be odd function? regards Piyush ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List forum is accessible at: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/si-list List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu
