Definition: | function, zero for all negative values of the independent variable time and equal to one for all its positive values, described by ε(t)=t∫−∞δ(τ)dτ={0 for t<0 1 for t>0, where δ(t) is the unit impulse SEE: Figure 4b), IEC 60050-103:2009, 103-03-01, and IEC 60027-6. Note 1 to entry: The value ε(0) of the unit-step function ε(t) may remain undefined or may be defined according to the context.
