This property states that multiplying two time domain functions given by f 1 (t)
and f 2 (t) in the time domain has the effect of evaluating the convolution of their
spectrums F 1 (w) with F 2 (w) in the frequency domain times 1

This property states that the convolution of the time functions f 1 (t) with f 2 (t) (in
the time domain) has the effect of multiplying their spectrums F 1 (w) with F 2 (w)
(in the frequency domain). Observe that the convolution integral (indicated by
the character ⊗) is in general a process not easy to evaluate, and that is precisely
the reason why the transform is used just to avoid it. Note that the convolution
process in one domain is translated into a product in the other domain.
