  • This property states that the convolution of signals in the time domain will be transformed into the multiplication of their Fourier transforms in the frequency domain.

  • Proof :

  • The convolution of the two signals in the time domain is defined as,

enter image description here

  • Taking the Fourier transform of the convolution.

enter image description here

  • Multiply and divide the RHS of the equation (3) by e^(-j2πfλ) to get,

enter image description here

  • Let (t-λ) = m in equation (3)

enter image description here

  • Using the definition of the Fourier transform of the RHS we get,

    ∴ F[$x_1 (t)* x_2 (t)]=X_1 (f)X_2 (f)$

This is the required result.
