Periodic vs Aperiodic signals

Causal vs. Anticausal vs.
Noncausal
Causal signals are signals that are zero for all negative
time,
Anticausal are signals that are zero for
all positive time.
Noncausal signals are signals that have nonzero values
in both positive and negative time

Causal vs. Anticausal vs. Noncausal
6
Even vs. Odd
An even signal is any signal f such that f (t) = f (-t)
Even signals can be easily plotted as they are vertical about the vertical
axis.
An odd signal is a signal such that f(t)=-f(t).

Even vs. Odd

Deterministic vs. Random
Deterministic signal is a signal in which each value of the signal is fixed
and can be determined by a mathematical expression, rule, or table.
Because of this the future values of the signal can be calculated from past
values with complete confidence.
Random signal has a lot of uncertainty about its behavior. The future
values of a random signal cannot be accurately predicted and can usually
only be guessed based on the averages of sets of signals

Deterministic vs. Random
Signals
Signals could be deterministic, with an explicit
mathematical description, a table or a well-defined rule.
All past, present, and future signal values are precisely
known with no uncertainty:
s1(t) =at S2(x,y)=ax+bxy+cy2
In contrast, for random signals the functional relationship is
unknown.

Operations/Transformations
Signal operations are operations on the time variable of the signal.
Two signal operations are considered

Time Shifting
Time shifting is, the shifting of a signal in time. This is done by adding or
subtracting the amount of the shift to the time variable in the function.
Subtracting a fixed amount from the time variable will shift the signal to
the right (delay) that amount, while adding to the time variable will shift
the signal to the left (advance).

Advance x(t+2)

Classification of Discrete-Time
Signals
Symmetric (even) and anti-symmetric (odd) signals:
Even: x(-n) = x(n)
Odd: x(-n) = -x(n)
Any arbitrary signal can be expressed as a sum of two signal components, one even
and the other odd:
xe(n) 1
