  Causality And Stability Of Discrete Time Systems Discrete Time Systems Discrete time systems A discrete-time system is a system that maps an input sequence with an output sequence  y[n] = T {x[n]} A discrete-time system is a device or algorithm that, according to some well-defined rule, operates on a discrete-time signal called the input signal or excitation to produce another discrete-time signal called the output signal or response. Mathematically speaking, a system is also a function. The input signal x[n] is transformed by the system into a signal y[n], which we express mathematically as y[·] = T {x[·]} or y[n] = T {x[·]}[n] or x[·]  T→ y[·]  The notation y[n] = T {x[n]} is mathematically vague. The reader must understand that in general y[n] is a function of the entire sequence {x[n]}, not just the single time point x[n]. Input Signal x[n]→ Discrete-time system → Output Signal y[n] Causality If a discrete-time system is causal, then the current output sample depends only on the

What is Linear Convolution and properties of linear convolution

  Linear Convolution Linear convolution is a mathematical operation done to calculate the output of any Linear-Time Invariant (LTI) system given its input and impulse response. It is applicable for both continuous and discrete-time signals. We can represent Linear Convolution as y(n)=x(n)*h(n) Here, y(n) is the output (also known as convolution sum). x(n) is the input signal, and h(n) is the impulse response of the LTI system. In linear convolution, both the sequences (input and impulse response) may or may not be of equal sizes. That is, they may or may not have the same number of samples. Thus the output, too, may or may not have the same number of samples as any of the inputs. For example:- consider the following signals x(n): [1,2,3] h(n): [1,2,3,4,5] As you can see, the number of samples in the input and Impulse response signals is not the same. Still, linear convolution is possible. Here’s how you calculate the number of samples in the output of linear convolution. L

  Introduction Of Signals And Systems Digital Signal Processing Digital In digital communication, we use discrete signals to represent data using binary numbers. Signal A signal is anything that carries some information. It’s a physical quantity that conveys data and varies with time, space, or any other independent variable. It can be in the time/frequency domain. It can be one-dimensional or two-dimensional. Processing The performing of operations on any data in accordance with some protocol or instruction is known as processing. System A system is a physical entity that is responsible for the processing. It has the necessary hardware to perform the required arithmetic or logical operations on a signal.    Digital Signal Processing Digital Signal Processing is the process of representing signals in a discrete mathematical sequence of numbers and analyzing, modifying, and extracting the information contained in the signal by carrying out algorithmic operations and processing on the si
