This problem could be resolved by generalizing Fourier transform which leads to development<br \/>\nof Laplace transform. The Laplace transform can be applied to broader class of signals compared to Fourier transform and analysis of many unstable systems thus play an important role in study of stability of systems. There are two varieties of Laplace transform: bilateral and unilateral. The bilateral one, also known as two- sided Laplace transform is defined for \u2013 \u221e \u2264 t \u2264 \u221e can handle all causal and non causal signals. It provides insights about system\u2019s characteristics such as stability, causality and frequency response.<br \/>\nThe unilateral one, also known as one-sided Laplace transform can handle only causal signals and mainly used to solve differential equations with initial conditions.<\/p>\n<h2>The Definition of Laplace Transform<\/h2>\n<p>Consider a continuous time signal x (t ).
