Analysis of Discrete Time LTI Systems

Techniques for the analysis of linear system:

Input output equation for system

() = 
( − 1),
( − 2), … … … ,
( − ), (), ( − 1), … … … , ( − )
For an LTI system, input output relationship can be expressed as
 

() =   ( − ) −  
( − )

 
This input output relationship is called difference equation
Response of LTI systems to arbitrary inputs: The Convolution Sum:


() =  ()ℎ( − )

Properties of Convolution:
Commutative Property:
() ∗ ℎ() = ℎ() ∗ ()
Associative Property:
[() ∗ ℎ()] ∗ () = () ∗ [ℎ() ∗ ()]
Distributive Property:
() ∗ [ℎ() + ()] = [() ∗ ℎ()] + [() ∗ ()]
Condition for Stability of LTI Systems:


 |ℎ()| < ∞

FIR System: Finite number of samples, Requires a memory of length N,
Described by a difference equation,


() =   ( − )

IIR System: Infinite number of samples, Requires a infinite memory, Described
by a difference equation,
 

() =   ( − ) −  
( − )
