Bilateral and Unilateral Laplace Transform The Laplace transform of a signal x(t) is given by:
If If The unilateral Laplace transform is actually the Laplace transform of a causal signal. Since signal of all system is causal, only the unilateral Laplace transform is considered. The lower limit can be written as as long s x(t) does not include a singularity function at t = 0.

Inverse Laplace Transform The inverse Laplace transform equation is given by:
However this equation is not used to evaluate the inverse Laplace transform due to the integration in the complex plane. In most cases, the Laplace transform exists in the following form:
Where values of s that will set B(s) to zero such are known as ZEROs of G(s) while values of s that will set A(s) to zero such are known as POLEs of G(s). The degree of polynomial B(s) is less than the degree of A(s) (m < n). The inverse Laplace transform can be obtained by applying the partial fraction. Otherwise, long division must be applied first to reduce the expression such that m is less than n. Partial Fraction Expansion Method A technique to reduce proper rational functions as in equation sum of simple terms as follows: into a

Step in inverse Laplace transform: 1. Expand G(s) in terms of a sum of partial fractions 2. Express A(s) as a product of factors 3. Inverse Laplace transform is obtained by summing the inverse Laplace transform f each of the partial fractions.

4.5.2 Stability in the s-domain The poled and zeros can be represented on the complex plane or s-plane. A small circle [ O ] is used to denote the location of a zero while a small cross [ X ] is used to denote the location of a pole in the s-plane. The complex plane consists of real axis and imaginary axis . The complex plane can be divided into: 1. Left half plane 2. Right half plane A linear system is stable if and only if all it poles of its transfer function are located on the left half plane (all the roots of the characteristic polynomial have negative real parts.
