where is a vertical contour in the complex plane chosen so that all singularities of F(s) are to the left of it.
When choosing a contour to evaluate an integral on the real line, a contour is generally chosen based on the range of integration and the position of poles in the complex plane. For example, for an integral from to - along the real axis, the contour at left could be chosen if the function had no poles on the real line, and the middle contour could be chosen if it had a pole at the origin. To perform an integral over the positive real axis from 0 to for a function with a pole at 0, the contour at right could be chosen.
This formulation is known as one-side (or unilateral) Laplace transform. The Laplace transform is a linear transform

Forward transform: lower limit of integration is 0- (i.e. just before 0) to avoid ambiguity that may arise if f(t) contains an impulse at origin Unilateral Laplace transform has no ambiguity in inverse transforms because causal inverse is always taken:
1 L1 e a t u (t ) s+a
No need to specify a region of convergence Disadvantage is that it cannot be used to analyze non causal systems or non causal inputs

Initial Value Theorem: This allow us to determine the initial value, g(0+) of g(t) directly from G(s).
The initial value theorem does not apply to rational functions G(s) in which the order of the numerator polynomial is greater then or equal to that of the denominator.
Properties
Final Value Theorem
t
This theorem only applies if the limit (LHS)actually exists. It is possible for the limit, lim s G(s ), to exist even though the s0 limit, lim g(t ) does not exist. t For example, L x(t ) = cos( 0 t ) X(s) = s 2 s2 + 0
Solution of Differential Equations The unilateral Laplace transform is particularly well suited for the
solution of differential equations with initial conditions because the time differentiation properties of the unilateral Laplace transform call for them in a systematic way. For example, the Laplace transform of the differential equation, d d2 x [x(t )]+ 12 x(t ) = 0 2 [ (t )]+ 7 dt dt
is
s2 X(s) s x(0 )
d (x(t ))t =0 + 7 s X(s) x(0 ) + 12 X(s) = 0 dt an algebraic equation in s which can be solved by algebraic methods. Then, when X(s) is found, its inverse Laplace transform, x(t), is the solution of the original differential equation.

Ratio of Polynomials
In each of these examples, the Laplace transform is rational, i.e. it is a ratio of polynomials in the complex variable s. N ( s) X ( s) = D( s) where N and D are the numerator and denominator polynomial respectively. In fact, X(s) will be rational whenever x(t) is a linear combination of real or complex exponentials. Rational transforms also arise when we consider LTI systems specified in terms of linear, constant coefficient differential equations. We can mark the roots of N and D in the s-plane along with the ROC

The graphical representation of X(s) through its poles and zeros in the s-plane is referred to as the pole-zero plot of X(s).

X ( + j ) = F{x(t )e t } = x(t )e t e jt dt
x(t )e t = F 1{ X ( + j )} =
Multiplying both sides by et:

X ( + j )e jt d
x(t ) =

Therefore, we can recover x(t) from X(s), where the real component is fixed and we integrate over the imaginary part, noting that ds = jd
x(t ) =
1 + j st j X (s)e ds 2j
The contour of integration is a straight line (in the complex plane) from -j to +j . We can choose any for this integration line, as long as the integral converges For the class of rational Laplace transforms, we can express X(s) as partial fractions to determine the inverse Fourier transform.
