Laplace transform of limited integral

33 Views Asked by At

Assuming $\mathscr{L}(x(t)) = X(s)$ then I would like to know $Y(s)$, where $y(t)$ is

$y(t) = \int_{t-\Delta}^{t} x(\tau) d\tau $

I guess one can start in the following way (using the two-side laplace transform):

$y(t) = \int_{t-\Delta}^{t} x(\tau) d\tau = \int_{-\infty}^{t} x(\tau) d\tau - \int_{-\infty}^{t-\Delta} x(\tau) d\tau $

Hence

$Y(s) = X(s)/s - Y_{unknown} (s) $

So what is the $Y_{unknown}(s)$?

Thank you in advance
