Question
100%

can you explain to me why the convolution of these two sinc fucntions which are rect functions equal a rect function? I thought when you convolute a rectangle and a rectangle with two different lengths, it makes a trapezoid shape. The answer says it is rectangle funtion so my code is corrcect but i dont understand why this is true. I need a step by step solution and explanation.

 

here is the problem: Consider the signal x(t) = 2 sinc(6t + 3).
the output y (t) = (x *h )(t) when x(t) is
passed through a filter with impulse response h (t) = 4sinc(2t -1). the matlab code was just to help me visuallize

% Define frequency axis
f = linspace(-10*pi, 10*pi, 1000); % Frequency axis from -10pi to 10pi
% Define the Fourier Transforms of the sinc functions as rectangular pulses
FT_sinc1 = double(abs(f) <= (6*pi)); % Rectangular pulse for 2*sinc(6t), width 12pi, height 1/6
FT_sinc2 = double(abs(f) <= (2*pi)); % Rectangular pulse for 4*sinc(2t), width 4pi, height 1/2
% Result of multiplication (convolution in time domain)
result_FT = FT_sinc1 .* FT_sinc2;
