Students can often evaluate the convolution integral continuous time case, convolution sum discretetime case, or perform graphical convolution but may not have a good grasp of what is happening. To calculate periodic convolution all the samples must be real. Verify the circular convolution property of the dft in matlab. Remembering that convolution in the td is multiplication in the fd and viceversa for both continuous and discrete infinite length sequences, we would like to see what happens for periodic, finiteduration sequences.
