In this question, we are looking at integrating a chirped signal. Chirped signals are quite common
in communication, radar/sonar and in some types of sensors. Chirped means that the frequency
of the signal varies with time in a predetermined way. Consider the following chirped signal:
𝑔(𝑡) = 𝑐𝑜𝑠(𝑡 2 ). This signal is multiplied by t to generate the measured signal, noted h and
defined by:

ℎ(𝑡) = 𝑡 ∗ 𝑔(𝑡)

1. Plot the variation of g in the intervals [0,π] and [0,2π].

2. With pen and paper, calculate the following integrals:

 3. Using forward or backward method (your choice), estimate the value of J1 and J2 using
15 samples.

Program in Matlab:

CALCULATING J1

CALCULATING J2

4. Same question using the trapezoid method for the same number of samples.
5. Write a MATLAB code to implement the Simpson’s rule and estimate both J1 and J2
using 15 samples.

6. Compare the results obtained for the three methods and justify them.
