INTRODUCTION

The Sumudu transform is introduced by Watugula. Sumudu transform may be used

to solve problems without resorting to a new frequency domain .Due to its simple

formulation and consequent special and useful properties, the Sumudu transform has

already shown much promise. It is revealed here in and elsewhere that it can help to solve

intricate problems in engineering mathematics and applied sciences. However, despite the

potential presented by this new operator, only few theoretical investigations have appeared

in the literature, over a fifteen-year period. Most of the available transform theory books, if

not all, do not refer to the Sumudu transform. Even in relatively recent well known

comprehensive handbooks, such as Debnath and Poularikas, no mention of the Sumudu

transform can be found.

SUMUDU TRANSFORM

Watugala introduced a new transform and named as Sumudu transform which is

defined by the following formula

𝐹(𝑢) = 𝒮[𝑓(𝑡); 𝑢] =

𝑢

∫ 𝑒−(

𝑢

) 𝑓(𝑡)𝑑𝑡, 𝑢 ∈ (−𝜏1, 𝜏2)

∞

BASIC SUMUDU TRANSFORM PROPERTIES

Sumudu transform for 𝑓 ∈ 𝐴:

𝐺(𝑢) = 𝒮[𝑓(𝑡)] = ∫ 𝑓(𝑢𝑡)𝑒−𝑡 𝑑𝑡, 𝑢 ∈ (−𝜏1, 𝜏2) ∞

Duality with Laplace transforms:

𝐺(𝑢) =

𝐹(1

⁄𝑢)

𝑢

, 𝐹(𝑠) =

𝐺(1

⁄𝑠)

𝑠

Linearity Property:

𝒮[𝑎𝑓(𝑡) + 𝑏𝑔(𝑡) = 𝑎𝒮[𝑓(𝑡)] + 𝑏𝒮[𝑔(𝑡)]]

SUMUDU TRANSFORM FUNDAMENTAL PROPERTIES

THE DISCRETE SUMUDU TRANSFORM

Over the set of functions

𝐴 = {(𝑓(𝑡)|∃𝑀, 𝜏1,𝜏2 > 0, |𝑓(𝑡)| < 𝑀𝑒|𝑡|/𝜏𝑗 , 𝑖𝑓 𝑡 ∈ (−1)𝑗 × [0, ∞))}, (1)

the Sumudu transform is defined by

𝐺(𝑢) = 𝒮[𝑓(𝑡)] = ∫ 𝑓(𝑢𝑡)𝑒−𝑡 𝑑𝑡, 𝑢 ∈ (−𝜏1, 𝜏2) ∞

(2)

Among others, the Sumudu transform was shown to have units preserving properties and

hence may be used to solve problems without resorting to the frequency domain. As will

be seen below, this is one of many strength points for this new transform, especially with

respect to applications in problems with

physical dimensions. In fact, the Sumudu transform which is itself linear, preserves linear

functions, and hence in particular does not change units (see for instance Watugala or

Belgacem et al).Theoretically, this point may perhaps best be illustrated as an implication

of this more global result.

THEOREM:1

The Sumudu transform amplifies the coefficients of the power series function,

𝑓(𝑡) = Σ 𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑛 ∞

𝑛

=0 (1.1)

by sending it to the power series function,

𝐺(𝑢) = Σ 𝑛! 𝑎𝑛𝑢𝑛 ∞

𝑛

=0 (1.2)

PROOF :

Let f (t) be in A. If 𝑓(𝑡) = Σ 𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑛 ∞

𝑛

=0 in some interval I ⊂ R, then by Taylor’s

function expansion theorem,

𝑓(𝑡) = Σ 𝑓(𝑛)(𝑜)

𝑛!

∞𝑘

=0 𝑡𝑛

(1.3)

Therefore, by (2), and that of the gamma function Γ , we have

𝒮[𝑓(𝑡)] = ∫ Σ 𝑓(𝑛)(𝑜)

𝑛!

∞𝑘

=0 (𝑢𝑡)𝑛𝑒−𝑡 ∞

0 𝑑𝑡

= Σ 𝑓(𝑛)(𝑜)

𝑛!

∞𝑘

=0 𝑢𝑛 ∫ 𝑡𝑛 ∞

0 𝑒−𝑡 𝑑𝑡

JETIR2107602 Journal of Emerging Technologies and Innovative Research (JETIR) www.jetir.org e774

= Σ 𝑓(𝑛)(𝑜)

𝑛!

∞𝑘

=0 𝑢𝑛 Γ(n+1)

= Σ 𝑓(𝑛)(0)𝑢𝑛 ∞

𝑛

=0 (1.4)

Consequently, it is perhaps worth noting that since

𝒮[(1 + 𝑡)𝑚] = 𝒮 Σ 𝐶𝑛

𝑚𝑡𝑛 𝑚𝑛

= 𝒮 Σ 𝑚!

𝑛!(𝑚−𝑛)!

𝑚𝑛

=0 𝑢𝑛

𝒮[(1 + 𝑡)𝑚] = Σ

𝑚!

(𝑚−𝑛)!

𝑚 𝑛=

𝑢𝑛

=Σ 𝑃𝑛

𝑚𝑢𝑛 𝑚𝑛

=0 (1.5)

the Sumudu transform sends combinations, 𝐶𝑛

𝑚 into permutations, 𝑃𝑛

𝑚, and hence may

seem to incur more order into discrete systems.

Also, a requirement that 𝒮[𝑓(𝑡)] converges, in an interval containing u=0, is provided by

the following conditions when satisfied, namely, that

(𝑖)𝑓(𝑛)(0) → 0 𝑎𝑠 𝑛 → ∞,

(𝑖𝑖) lim

𝑛→∞

𝑓(𝑛+1)(0)

𝑓(𝑛)(0)

𝑢| < 1 (1.6)

This means that the convergence radius r of 𝒮[𝑓(𝑡)] depends on the sequence

𝑓(𝑛)(0), since

𝑟 = lim

𝑛→∞

𝑓(𝑛+1)(0)

𝑓(𝑛)(0)

| (1.7)

Clearly, the Sumudu transform may be used as a signal processing or a detection

tool,especially in situations where the original signal has a decreasing power tail .

However, care must be taken, especially if the power series is not highly decaying. This

next example may instructively illustrate the stated concern. For instance, consider the

function

JETIR2107602 Journal of Emerging Technologies and Innovative Research (JETIR) www.jetir.org e775

𝑓(𝑡) = {

𝐼𝑛 (𝑡 + 1) 𝑖𝑓 𝑡 ∈ (−1,1]

𝑜 𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑤𝑖𝑠𝑒

(1.8)

Since 𝑓(𝑡) = Σ (−1)𝑛−1 ∞

𝑛

𝑡𝑛

⁄𝑛 the expect for u=0

𝒮[𝑓(𝑡)] = Σ (−1)𝑛−1(𝑛 − 1)! 𝑢𝑛 ∞

𝑛

=1 (1.9)

Diverges throught , because its convergens radius

𝑟 = lim

𝑛→∞

(−1)𝑛−1(𝑛−1)!

(−1)𝑛𝑛!

lim

𝑛→∞

𝑛

= 0 (1.10)

RELATION BETWEEN SUMUDU AND LAPLACE TRANSFORM

In our study, we use the following convolution notation: double convolution

between two continuous functions F (x, y) and G(x, y) given by

𝐹1(𝑥, 𝑦) ∗∗ 𝐹2(𝑥, 𝑦) = ∫ ∫ 𝐹1(𝑥 − 𝜃1, 𝑦 − 𝜃2)𝐹2(𝜃1, 𝜃2)𝑑𝜃1𝑑𝜃2

𝑥

𝑦

The single Sumudu transform is defined over the set of the functions

𝐴 = {(𝑓(𝑡)|∃𝑀, 𝜏1,𝜏2 > 0, |𝑓(𝑡)| < 𝑀𝑒|𝑡|/𝜏𝑗 , 𝑖𝑓 𝑡 ∈ (−1)𝑗 × [0, ∞))}

by 𝐺(𝑢) = 𝒮[𝑓(𝑡)] = ∫ 𝑓(𝑢𝑡)𝑒−𝑡 𝑑𝑡, 𝑢 ∈ (−𝜏1, 𝜏2) ∞

A sufficient condition for the existence of the Sumudu transform of a

function f is of exponential order, that is, there exist real constants

M > 0, 𝐾1, and 𝐾2 , such that |𝑓(𝑡, 𝑥)| ≤ 𝑀𝑒

EXISTENCE OF THE SUMUDU TRANSFORM

THEOREM:2

If f is of exponential order, then its Sumudu transform 𝒮[𝑓(𝑡, 𝑥)] = 𝐹(𝑣, 𝑢)exists and is

given by

𝐹(𝑣, 𝑢) = ∫ ∫ 𝑒−

which imply that the integrals defining the real and imaginary parts of F exist for value of

𝑅𝑒 (

) > 1

𝐾1

𝐾2

, and this completes the proof.

Thus, we note that for a function f, the sufficient conditions for the existence of the

Sumudu transform are to be piecewise continuous and of exponential order.

We also note that the double Sumudu transform of function f(t, x) is defind by

JETIR2107602 Journal of Emerging Technologies and Innovative Research (JETIR) www.jetir.org e777

𝐹(𝑣, 𝑢) = 𝒮2[𝑓(𝑡, 𝑥); (𝑣, 𝑢)] =

𝑢𝑣

∫ ∫ 𝑒−(

𝑡

𝑣

𝑥

𝑢

)𝑓(𝑡, 𝑥)

∞

𝑑𝑡𝑑𝑥

where, 𝑠2 indicates double Sumudu transform and 𝑓(𝑡, 𝑥 ) is a function which can be

expressed as a convergent infinite series. Now, it is well known that the derivative of

convolution for two functions 𝑓 and 𝑔 is given by

𝑑

𝑑𝑥

(𝑓 ∗ 𝑔)(𝑥) =

𝑑

𝑑𝑥

𝑓(𝑥) ∗ 𝑔(𝑥)𝑜𝑟 𝑓(𝑥) ∗

𝑑

𝑑𝑥

𝑔(𝑥)

and it can be easily proved that Sumudu transform is

𝒮 [

𝑑

𝑑𝑥

(𝑓 ∗ 𝑔)(𝑥); 𝑣] = 𝑢𝒮 [

𝑑

𝑑𝑥

𝑓(𝑥); 𝑢] 𝒮[𝑔(𝑥); 𝑢] or

= 𝑢𝒮[𝑓(𝑥); 𝑢]𝒮 [

𝑑

𝑑𝑥

𝑔(𝑥); 𝑢].

The double Sumudu and double Laplace transforms have strong relationships that may be

expressed either as

(𝐼) 𝑢𝑣𝐹(𝑢, 𝑣) = £2 (𝑓(𝑥, 𝑦); (

𝑢

𝑣

))

Or (𝐼𝐼) 𝑝𝑠𝐹(𝑝, 𝑠) = £2 (𝑓(𝑥, 𝑦); (

𝑝

𝑠

))

where £2 represents the operation of double Laplace transform. In particular, the double

Sumudu and double Laplace transforms interchange the image of sin(x + t) and cos(x + t).

It turns out that

𝑠2[sin(𝑥 + 𝑡)] = £2[cos(𝑥 + 𝑡) =

𝑢 + 𝑣

(1 + 𝑢)2(1 + 𝑣)2

And

𝑠2[cos(𝑥 + 𝑡)] = £2[sin(𝑥 + 𝑡) =

(1 + 𝑢)2(1 + 𝑣)2
