In mathematics and, in particular, functional analysis, convolution is a mathematical operator which takes two functions f and g and produces a third function that in a sense represents the amount of overlap between f and a reversed and translated version of g. A convolution is a kind of very general moving average, as one can see by taking one of the functions to be an indicator function of an interval. we mainly use impulse functions to convolute in dicreate cases
for finding convolution of periodic signals we use circular convolution
yes we can perform linear convolution from circular convolution, but the thing is zero pading must be done upto N1+N2-1 inputs.
there is a big difference between circular and linear convolution , in linear convolution we convolved one signal with another signal where as in circular convolution the same convolution is done but in circular patteren ,depending upon the samples of the signal
Convolution TheoremsThe convolution theorem states that convolution in time domain corresponds to multiplication in frequency domain and vice versa:Proof of (a):Proof of (b):
for finding convolution of periodic signals we use circular convolution
This is how I use convolution in a sentence. :D
circular convolution is used for periodic and finite signals while linear convolution is used for aperiodic and infinite signals. In linear convolution we convolved one signal with another signal where as in circular convolution the same convolution is done but in circular pattern ,depending upon the samples of the signal
Convolution in the time domain is equivalent to multiplication in the frequency domain.
Convolution in the time domain is equivalent to multiplication in the frequency domain.
Convolution is particularly useful in signal analysis. See related link.

To find linear convolution using circular convolution in MATLAB, you can use the cconv function, which computes the circular convolution of two sequences. To obtain the linear convolution, you need to pad one of the sequences with zeros to the length of the sum of the lengths of both sequences minus one. Here's a simple example: x = [1, 2, 3]; % First input sequence h = [4, 5]; % Second input sequence N = length(x) + length(h) - 1; % Length for linear convolution y = cconv(x, [h, zeros(1, N-length(h))], N); % Circular convolution This will give you the linear convolution result of x and h.
