Denition
A signal is a function representing a physical quantity or
variable, and typically it contains information about the behavior
or nature or phenomenon. For instance, in a RC circuit the
signal may represent the voltage across the capacitor or the
current owing in the resistor. Mathematically, a signal is
represented as a function of an independent variable t . Thus, a
signal is denoted by x(t ).
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Signals and Systems II
Slide 10
Denition
An energy signal is a signal whose total energy is nite, i.e.
those signals for which E

< . Such a signal must have zero


average power, since in the continuous time case, for example,
P

= lim
T
E

2T
= 0
Example
An example of a nite-energy signal is a signal that takes on
the value 1 for 0 t 1 and 0 otherwise. In this case E

= 1
and P

= 0.
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Signals and Systems III
Slide 11
Denition
A power signal is a signal whose average power is nite, i.e.
those signals for which P

< . Such a signal must have


innite total energy.
Example
The constant signal x[n] = 4 is a power signal. It has innite
energy, but average power P

= 16.
There are signals for which neither P

nor E

are nite. A
simple example is the signal x(t ) = t .
Transformation of the independent variable
1
Time shift: A signal and its time shifted version are identical
in shape, but are displaced or shifted relative to each other.
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Signals and Systems IV
Slide 12
2
Time reversal: The time reversed version of the signal x(t )
is obtained by a reection about t = 0.
3
Time scale: the independent variable is scaled.
Example
Suppose that we would like to determine the effect of
transforming the independent variable of a given signal, x(t ), to
obtain a signal of the form x(t +), where and are given
numbers. A systematic approach to doing this is to rst delay or
advance x(t ) in accordance with the value of , and then to
perform time scaling and/or time time reversal on the resulting
signal in accordance with the value of . The delayed or
advanced signal is linearly stretched if [[ < 1, linearly
compressed if [[ > 1, and reversed in time if < 0.
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Signals and Systems V
Slide 13
Denition
If a continuous-time signal x(t ) can take on any value in the
continuous interval (a, b), where a may be and b may be
+, then the continuous-time signal x(t ) is called an analog
signal. If a discrete-time signal x[n] can take on only a nite
number of distinct values, then we call this signal a digital
signal.
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Signals and Systems VI
Slide 14
Denition
A signal x(t ) is a real signal if its value is a real number, and a
signal x(t ) is a complex signal if its value is a complex number.
A general complex signal x(t ) is a function of the form
x(t ) = x
1
(t ) + jx
2
(t )
where x
1
(t ) and x
2
(t ) are real signals and j =

1.
Denition
Deterministic signals are those signals whose values are
completely specied for any given time. Random signals are
those signals that take random values at any given time and
must be characterized statistically.

Slide 15
Denition
A signal x(t ) or x[n] is referred to as an even signal if
x(t ) = x(t )
x[n] = x[n]
A signal x(t ) or x[n] is referred to as an odd signal if
x(t ) = x(t )
x[n] = x[n]
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com

[x(t ) + x(t )]
The odd part of the signal x(t ) is
Ox(t ) =
1

[x(t ) x(t )]
Similarly,

Denition
A continuous-time signal x(t ) is said to be periodic with period
T if there is a positive nonzero value of T for which
x(t ) = x(t + T) all t
Any sequence which is not periodic is called a nonperiodic
(or aperiodic) sequence. The fundamental period T
0
of x(t ) is
the smallest positive value of T for which the above equation
holds.
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Signals and Systems XI
Slide 19
Denition
A discrete-time signal x[n] is periodic with period N, where N is
a positive integer, if it is unchanged by a time shift of N, i.e. if
x[n] = x[n + N]
for all values of n. The fundamental period N
0
is the smallest
positive value of N for which the above equation holds.
Denition

u(t )

1 t > 0
0 t < 0
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Signals and Systems XII
Slide 20
Denition
Dirac delta function, often referred to as the unit impulse(or
delta) function, is a signal that has innite height and
innitesimal width. The Dirac delta function (x) is dened by

w(x)(x) dx = w(0)
where w(x) is any function that is continuous at x = 0.

Denition
If the input and output signals are continuous-time signals, then
the system is called a continuous-time system. If the input and
output signals are discrete-time signal, then the system is
called a discrete-time system.
Denition
A system is said to be memoryless if the output at any time
depends on only the input at that same time. Otherwise, the
system is said to have memory.

is memoryless. An example of a discrete-time system with
memory is accumulator or summer

Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Signals and Systems XVI
Slide 24
Denition
A system is said to be invertible if distinct inputs lead to distinct
outputs. For a discrete-time case, if a system is invertible, then
an inverse system exists that, when cascaded with the original
system, yields an output equal to the input to the rst system.
Example
An example of an invertible continuous-time system is
y(t ) = 2x(t ) for which the inverse system is w(t ) =
1
2
y(t ). An
example of a noninvertible system is y(t ) = x
2
(t ).
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Signals and Systems XVII
Slide 25
Denition
A system is called causal if its output y(t ) at an arbitrary time
t = t
0
depends on only the input x(t ) for t t
0
. That is, the
output of a causal system at the present time depends on only
the present and/or past values of the input, not on its future
values. A system is called noncausal if it is not causal.
Denition
A system is called time-invariant if a time shift in the input
signal causes the same time shift in the output signal.
Otherwise, the system is time-varying.
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Signals and Systems XVIII
Slide 26
Example
Consider the continuous-time system dened by
y(t ) = sin[x(t )]
This system is time invariant.
Example
The following discrete-time system is time-varying.
y[n] = nx[n]
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Signals and Systems XIX
Slide 27
Denition
A system is linear if the following two properties hold:
1
additivity. The response to x
1
(t ) + x
2
(t ) is y
1
(t ) + y
2
(t ).
2
homogeneity or scaling.The response to ax

(t ) is ay

where a is any complex constant.
The two properties dening a linear system can be combined
into a single statement:
continuous time:ax

If a system is linear and also time-invariant, then it is called a
linear time-invariant (LTI) system.
Denition
A system is BIBO stable if and only if every bounded input
results in a bounded output. For a xed, linear, system a
necessary and sufcient condition for BIBO stability is

Sampling
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Sampling I
Slide 75
Sampling theorem: A continuous-time signal x(t ) can be
uniquely reconstructed from its samples x
s
(t ) with two
conditions:
1
x(t ) must be band-limited with a maximum frequency
M
.
2
Sampling frequency
s
of x
s
(t ) must be greater than 2
M
,
i.e.
s
> 2
M
.
The second condition is also known as Nyquist criterion.

s
is referred to as Nyquist frequency, i.e., the smallest
possible sampling frequency in order to recover the original
analog signal from its samples.
Sampling of a continuous-time signal x(t ) can be done by
obtaining its values at periodic times x(kT), where T is the
sampling period.
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Sampling II
Slide 76
Sampling is done by multiplying x(t ) by a train of impulses
with a period T
x
p
(t ) = x(t )p(t )
where
p(t ) =
+

n=
(t nT)
x
p
(t ) is an impulse train with the amplitude of the impulses
equal to the samples of x(t ) at intervals spaces by T; that
is,
x
p
(t ) =
+

n=
x(nT)(t nT)
From the multiplication property
X
p
(j ) =

[X(j )] P(j )
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Sampling III
Slide 77
As
P(j ) =

k=

s
)
Since convolution with an impulse simply shifts a signal, it
follows that
X
p
(j ) =

T

k=
X(j ( k
s
))
That is, X
p
(j ) is a periodic function of consisting of
superposition of shifted replicas of X(j ), scaled by 1/T.

The properties of the region of convergence (ROC) for the
z-tansform are as follows:
1
The ROC of X(z) consists of a ring in the z-plane centered
about the origin.
2
The ROC does not contain any poles.
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
The z-Transform VI
Slide 91
3
If x[n] is of nite duration, then the ROC is the entire
z-plane, except possibly z = 0 and/or z = .
Example
The ROC of [n] 1 consists of the entire z-plane. The ROC of
[n 1] z
1
consists of the entire z-plane, including z = but
excluding z = 0. The ROC of [n + 1] z consists of the entire
z-plane (including z = 0).
4
If x[n] is a right-sided sequence, and if the circle [z[ = r
0
is
in the ROC, then all nite values of z = 0 for which [z[ > r
0
will also be in the ROC.
5
If x[n] is a left-sided sequence, and if the circe [z[ = r
0
is in
the ROC, then all values of z for which 0 < [z[ < r
0
will be in
the ROC.
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
The z-Transform VII
Slide 92
6
If x[n] is two-sided, and if the circle [z[ = r
0
is in the ROC,
then the ROC will consist of a ring in the z-plane that
includes the circle [z[ = r
0
.

7
If the z-transform X(z) of x[n] is rational, then its ROC is
bounded by the poles or extends to innity.
8
If the z-transform X(z) of x[n] is rational, and if x[n] is right
sided, then the ROC is the region in the z-plane outside the
outermost pole i.e., outside the circle of radius equal to
the largest magnitude of the poles of X(z). Furthermore, if
x[n] is causal (i.e., if it is right sided and equal to 0 for
n < 0), then the ROC also include z = .
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
The z-Transform VIII
Slide 93
9
If the z-transform X(z) of x[n] is rational, and if x[n] is left
sided, then the ROC is the region in the z-plane inside the
innermost nonzero pole i.e., inside the circle of radius
equal to the smallest magnitude of the poles of X(z) other
than any at z = 0 and extending inward to and possible
including z = 0. In particular, if x[n] is anticausal (i.e., if it is
left sided and equal to 0 for n > 0), then the ROC also
includes z = 0.

Amplitude (Linear) Modulation
Double Sideband-Suppressed Carrier
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Double Sideband (DSB) I
Slide 124
Most of the common signalling techniques consist of
modulating an analog or digital baseband signal onto a
carrier.
All can be represented by the generic bandpass form
s(t ) = g(t ) cos(2f
c
t )
or
s(t ) = 'g(t ) exp(j 2f
c
t )
where f
c
is the carrier frequency.
The function g(t ) is referred to as the envelope of the
modulated signal. The desired type of modulating signal is
obtained by selecting the appropriate modulation function
g[m(t )] where m(t ) is the analog or digital baseband
message signal.
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Double Sideband (DSB) II
Slide 125
We always assume that m(t ) is real but the function g(t ) is
complex or real. Either the frequency, phase or amplitude
of the carrier is varied in proportion to the baseband signal
m(t ).
Modulation is a process that causes a shift in the range of
frequencies in a signal.
The term baseband is used to designate the band of
frequencies of the signal delivered by the source or the
input transducer.
In telephony, the baseband is 0 to 3.5 kHz.
In television, the baseband is 0 to 4.3 MHz.
Baseband communication does not use modulation.
Example: Long-distance PCM over optical bers.
Carrier Communication uses modulation.

Double Sideband (DSB) III
Slide 126
Example: Long-haul communication over a radio link.
One of the basic parameters (amplitude, frequency, or
phase) of a sinusoidal carrier of high frequency
c
is varied
in proportion to m(t ). This results in AM, FM, or PM,
respectively.
FM and PM belong to the class of modulation known as
angle modulation.

That is, the DSB modulation translates or shifts the
frequency spectrum to the left and the right by

If the bandwidth of m(t ) is B Hz, then the bandwidth of the
modulated signal is 2B Hz.
Lower sideband (LSB) is a portion of DSB spectrum which
lies below

Upper sideband (USB) is a portion of DSB spectrum which
lies above

DSB signal does not contain a discrete component of the
carrier frequency

. For this reason DSB is called
DSB-SC.
Demodulation, or detection, is the process of recovering
the signal from the modulated signal.
in Synchronous or coherent detection the local oscillator
has the same frequency and phase as the carrier used for
modulation.
Modulation can be obtained by multiplier modulators,
nonlinear modulators, and switching modulators.
Signals and Systems www.danesfahani.com
Double Sideband (DSB) VIII
Slide 131
1
Multiplier Modulator: Here modulation is achieved directly
by multiplying m(t ) by cos
c
t using an analog multiplier
whose output is proportional to the product of two input
signal. Another way to multiply two signals is through
logarithmic ampliers. Here the basic components are a
logarithmic and an antilogarithmic amplier with outputs
proportional to the log and antilog of their inputs,
respectively. Using two logarithmic ampliers, we generate
and add the logarithms of the two signals to be multiplied.
The sum is then applied to an antilogarithmic amplier to
obtain the desired product. That is,
AB = antilog[log(AB)]
= antilog[logA + logB]
It is rather difcult to maintain linearity in this kind of
amplier, and they tend to be rather expensive.

Nonlinear Modulator: Modulation can be achieved by using
nonlinear devices, such as a semiconductor diode or a
transistor.

Switching Modulator: The multiplication operation required
for modulation can be replaced by a simpler switching
operation in which a modulated signal can be obtained by
multiplying m(t ) not only by a pure sinusoidal but by any
periodic signal w(t ) of the fundamental radian frequency

c

Compared with an AM signal, a DSBSC signal has innite
percentage modulation because there is no carrier line
component.
The modulation efciency of a DSBSC signal is 100%
since no power is wasted in a discrete carrier.
However, a product detector is always required for a
DSBSC signal (more expensive than an envelope
detector).

containing the complete information of the baseband

VSB inherits the advantages of DSB and SSB but avoids
their disadvantages at a small cost.
VSB signals are relatively easy to generate, and, at the

than that of SSB signal.
