Abstract A
time scale is any closed subset of the real line. Continuous time and
discrete time are special cases. The unilateral Laplace
transform of a signal on a time scale subsumes the
continuous-time unilateral Laplace transform, and the discrete-time
unilateral
z-transform as special cases. The regions of
convergence (ROCs) time scale Laplace transforms are determined by the
time scale’s
graininess. For signals with finite area, the ROC for the
Laplace transform resides outside of a Hilger circle determined
by the time scales’s smallest graininess. For transcendental
functions associated with the solution of linear time-invariant
differential equations, the ROCs are determined by function
parameters (e.g., sinusoid frequency) and the largest and smallest
graininess values in the time scale. Since graininess always
lies between zero and infinity, there are ROCs applicable to
a specified signal on any time scale. All ROCs reduce to the
familiar half-plane ROCs encountered in the continuous-time unilateral
Laplace transform and circle ROCs for the unilateral z-transform.
If a time scale unilateral Laplace transform converges at some point in
the transform plane, a region of additional
points can be identified as also belonging to the larger
ROC.
