5 five types  There are five types of signals; (i) Continuous-Time and Discrete-Time Signals (ii) Even and Odd Signals. (iii) Periodic and Non-periodic Signals. (iv) Deterministic and Random Signals. (v) Energy and Power Signals. 1.2 Classifications of a Signal.

6 Continuous-Time (CT) Signals  Continuous-Time (CT) Signals  Continuous-Time (CT) Signals are functions whose amplitude or value varies continuously with time, x(t).  The symbol t denotes time for continuous-time signal and ( ) used to denote continuous-time value quantities.  Example, speed of car, converting acoustic or light wave into electrical signal and microphone converts variation in sound pressure into correspond variation in voltage and current. Figure 1.1: Continuous-Time Signal Continuous-Time and Discrete-Time Signals.

7 Discrete-Time Signals  Discrete-Time Signals  Discrete-Time Signals are function of discrete variable, i.e. they are defined only at discrete instants of time.  It is often derived from continuous-time signal by sampling at uniform rate. T s denotes sampling period and n denotes integer.  The symbol n denotes time for discrete time signal and [. ] is used to denote discrete-value quantities.  Example: the value of stock at the end of the month. Figure 1.3: Discrete-Time Signal.Cont’d…

8 even  A continuous-time signal x(t) is said to be an even signal if odd  The signal x(t) is said to be an odd signal if  In summary, an even signal are symmetric about the vertical axis (time origin) whereas an odd signal are antisymetric about the origin. Figure 1.4: Even Signal Figure 1.5: Odd Signal Even and Odd Signals.

10 Example 1.1: Even and Odd Signals. Find the even and odd components of each of the following signals: (a)x(t) = 4cos(3πt)Answer: ge(t) = 4cos(3πt) go(t) = 0

11 Periodic Signal.  A periodic signal x(t) is a function of time that satisfies the condition where T is a positive constant.  The smallest value of T that satisfy the definition is called a period. Figure 1.6: Aperiodic Signal. Figure 1.7: Periodic Signal Periodic and Non-Periodic Signals.

12 Deterministic Signal. deterministic signal  A deterministic signal is a signal that has no uncertainty with respect to its value at any time.  The deterministic signal can be modeled as completely specified function of time. Figure 1.8: Deterministic Signal; Square Wave Deterministic and Random Signals.

13 Random Signal.  A random signal is a signal about which there is uncertainty before it occurs. The signal may be viewed as belonging to an ensemble or a group of signals which each signal in the ensemble having a different waveform.  The signal amplitude fluctuates between positive and negative in a randomly fashion.  Example; noise generated by amplifier of a radio or television. Figure 1.9: Random SignalCont’d…

14 A signal with finite signal energy is called an energy signal. A signal with infinite signal energy and finite average signal power is called a power signal. Energy Signal and Power Signals.

Energy Signal and Power Signals. Energy Signal.  A signal is refer to energy signal if and only if the total energy satisfy the condition; Power Signal.  A signal is refer to power signal if and only if the average power of signal satisfy the condition;

Basic Operation of the Signals Time Scaling Reflection and Folding Time Shifting Precedence Rule for Time Shifting and Time Scaling.

17 multiplication  Time scaling refers to the multiplication of the variable by a real positive constant. acompressed  If a > 1 the signal y(t) is a compressed version of x(t). aexpanded  If 0 < a < 1 the signal y(t) is an expanded version of x(t).  Example: Figure 1.11: Time-scaling operation; continuous-time signal x(t), (b) version of x(t) compressed by a factor of 2, and (c) version of x(t) expanded by a factor of Time Scaling.

18  In the discrete time,  It is defined for integer value of k, k > 1. Figure below for k = 2, sample for n = +-1, Figure 1.12: Effect of time scaling on a discrete-time signal: (a) discrete-time signal x[n] and (b) version of x[n] compressed by a factor of 2, with some values of the original x[n] lost as a result of the compression.Cont’d…

19 replacing  Let x(t) denote a continuous-time signal and y(t) is the signal obtained by replacing time t with –t;  y(t) is the signal represents a refracted version of x(t) about t = 0. special cases  Two special cases for continuous and discrete-time signal; (i) Even signal; x(-t) = x(t) an even signal is same as reflected version. (ii) Odd signal; x(-t) = -x(t) an odd signal is the negative of its reflected version Reflection and Folding.

20 Example 1.2: Reflection. Given the triangular pulse x(t), find the reflected version of x(t) about the amplitude axis (origin). Solution: Replace the variable t with –t, so we get y(t) = x(-t) as in figure below. Figure 1.13: Operation of reflection: (a) continuous-time signal x(t) and (b) reflected version of x(t) about the origin x(t) = 0 for t T 2. y(t) = 0 for t > T 1 and t < -T 2. .

21 delayadvances  A time shift delay or advances the signal in time by a time interval +t 0 or –t 0, without changing its shape. y(t) = x(t - t 0 ) right  If t 0 > 0 the waveform of y(t) is obtained by shifting x(t) toward the right, relative to the tie axis. left  If t 0 < 0, x(t) is shifted to the left. Example: Figure 1.14: Shift to the Left. Figure 1.15: Shift to the Right. Q: How does the x(t) signal looks like? Time Shifting.

22 Example 1.3: Time Shifting. Given the rectangular pulse x(t) of unit amplitude and unit duration. Find y(t)=x (t - 2)

23 shifting  Time shifting operation is performed first on x(t), which results in  Time shift has replace t in x(t) by t - b. scaling  Time scaling operation is performed on v(t), replacing t by at and resulting in,  Example in real-life: Voice signal recorded on a tape recorder;  (a > 1) tape is played faster than the recording rate, resulted in compression.  (a < 1) tape is played slower than the recording rate, resulted in expansion Precedence Rule for Time Shifting and Time Scaling.

32 interconnection of operation input output  A system can be viewed as an interconnection of operation that transfer an input signal into an output signal with properties different from those of the input signal.  y(t) is the impulse response of the continuous-time system and y[t] is the impulse response of the discrete-time system. 1.4 What is a System ?

33  Real life example of system; (i) In automatic speaker recognition system; the system is to extract the information from an incoming speech signal for the purpose of recognizing and identifying the speaker. (ii) In communication system; the system will transport the the information contained in the message over a communication channel and deliver that information to the destination. Figure 1.30: Elements of a communication system. Figure 1.31: Block diagram representation of a system.Cont’d…

34 a system is an entity that manipulates one or more signals to accomplish a function, thereby yielding new signals.  By definition, a system is an entity that manipulates one or more signals to accomplish a function, thereby yielding new signals.  A physical process or a mathematical model of the physical process that relates a set of input signals to yield another set of output signal.  Process input signals to produce output signals  System representation of the systems.Cont’d…

35  The properties of a system describe the characteristics of the operator H representing the system.  Basic properties of the system; Stability Memory Causality Inevertibility Time Invariance Linearity. Properties of Systems.

36  A system is said to be bounded-input bounded-output (BIBO) stable if and only if all bounded inputs result in bounded outputs. The output of the system does not diverge if the input does not diverge.  For the resistor, if i(t) is bounded then so is v(t), but for the capacitance this is not true. Consider i(t) = u(t) then v(t) = tu(t) which is unbounded Stability.

37  A system is said to possess memory if its output signal depend on pass or future values of the input signal.  Note that v(t) depends not just on i(t) at one point in time t. Therefore, the system that relates v to i exhibits memory.  The system is said to be memoryless if its output signal depends only on the present value of the input signal.  Example: The resistive divider network  Therefore, v o (t o ) depends upon the value of v i (t o ) and not on v i (t) for t = t o Memory.

38 Example : Memory and Memoryless System. Below is the moving-average system described by the input-output relation. Does it has memory or not? (a) (b)Solution: (a)It has memory, the value of the output signal y[n] at time n depends on the present and two pass values of x[n]. (b)It is memoryless, because the value of the output signal y[n] depends only on the present value of the input signal x[n]. .

39 Causal.  A system is said to be casual if the present value of the output signal depends only on the present or the past values of the input signal. The system cannot anticipate the input.Noncausal.  In contrast, the output signal of a noncausal system depends on one or more future values of the input signal Causality.

6/11/2016Dr. Abid Yahya40 Causality Any system for which the response occurs only during or after the time in which the excitation is applied is called a causal system. All real physical systems are causal

41 Example : Causal and Noncausal. Causal or noncausal? Solution: Noncausal; the output signal y[n] depends on a future value of the input signal, x[n+1] Causality is required for a system to be capable of operating in real time.

42  A system is said to be invertible if the input of the system can be recovered from the output. Figure 1.32: The notion of system inevitability. The second operator Hinv is the inverse of the first operator H. Hence, the input x(t) is passed through the cascade correction of H and H-1 completely unchanged Inevitability.

43  A system is said to be time invariant if the time delay or time advance of the input signal leads to an identical time shift in the output signal.  The Time invariance system responds identically no mater when the input signal is applied. Figure 1.33: (a) Time-shift operator S t0 preceding operator H. (b) Time-shift operator S t0 following operator H. These two situations are equivalent, provided that H is time invariant Time Invariance.

44 two properties.  A system is said to be linear in term of the system input (excitation) x(t) and the system output (response) y(t) if it satisfies the following two properties. 1. Superposition  The system is initially at rest. The input is x(t)=x 1 (t), the output y(t)=y 1 (t). So x(t)=x 1 (t)+x 2 (t) the corresponding output y(t)=y 1 (t)+y 2 (t). 2. Homogeneity/Scaling  The system is initially at rest. Input x(t) result in y(t). The system exhibit the property of homogeneity if x(t) scaled by constant factor a result in output y(t) is scaled by exact constant a Linearity.

Example: 1. Determine whether the system y[n] = nx[n-1]+2 is : (i) memoryless (ii) time invariant (iii) linear (iv) causal (v) stable 45
