Question

The Laplace transform of the causal periodic square wave of period TT shown in the figure below is
A plot of a causal periodic square wave $f(t)$ versus time $t$. The signal has a period $T$. It is equal to 1 for $0 < t < T/2$ and 0 for $T/2 < t < T$. This pattern repeats for $t > 0$.
  1. A.
    F(s)=11+esT/2F(s) = \frac{1}{1+e^{-sT/2}}
  2. B.
    F(s)=1s(1+esT/2)F(s) = \frac{1}{s(1+e^{-sT/2})}
  3. C.
    F(s)=1s(1esT)F(s) = \frac{1}{s(1-e^{-sT})}
  4. D.
    F(s)=11esTF(s) = \frac{1}{1-e^{-sT}}
