Suppose we are given the following information about a signal x(t):

1. x(t) is real and even.

2. x(t) is periodic with period T = 4 and Fourier coefficients $ \ a_k $.

3. $ \ a_k = 0 $ for $ \left \vert k \right \vert > 1 $.

4. $ \frac{1}{2}\int_{0}^{2} \left \vert x(t) \right \vert ^2 \, dt = 2. $

Specify two different signals that satisfy these conditions.

One signal that would satisfy these coniditions is the input signal

$ \ x(t) = x(-t) = t^2 $
