Discrete-Time complex exponential and Sinusoidal
signals
A discrete-time complex exponential signal or sequence is of the form
The complex exponential can exhibit different characteristics depending upon its
parameters 𝐶 and 𝛼
2
Real Exponential signal
A discrete-time real exponential is a special case of complex exponential
𝑥 𝑛 = 𝐶𝛼 𝑛
where 𝐶 and 𝛼 are real numbers
• If 𝛼 > 1, the magnitude of the signal 𝑥[𝑛] grows exponentially with 𝑛 (Growing
Exponential)
• If 𝛼 < 1 , the magnitude of the signal 𝑥[𝑛] decreases exponentially with
𝑛 (Decaying Exponential)
• If 𝛼 = 1, then 𝑥[𝑛] is a constant
• If 𝛼 = −1 , 𝑥[𝑛] alternates between +𝐶 and − 𝐶

𝛼>1 0<𝛼<1

Sinusoid Signals
Using eq(6) and constraining 𝛽 as a purely imaginary number (i.e 𝛼 = 1 ) and
𝐶 = 1,we will get
𝑥 𝑛 = 𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 𝑛 …(7)
As in the continuous time case, the discrete-time sinusoid is represented as
𝑥 𝑛 = Acos(𝜔0 𝑛 + 𝜑)…….(8)
𝑛 →dimensionless 𝜔0 , 𝜑 → radians
5
The signals represented in eq(7) and eq(8) are examples of discrete-time signals with
infinite total energy but finite average power
𝑗𝜔 𝑛 2
Since 𝑒 0 = 1, every sample of the signal in eq(7) contribute 1 to the signal
energy. Thus the total energy for −∞ < 𝑛 < ∞ is infinite, while the average power
per time point is equal to 1.
According to Euler’s relation
𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 𝑛 =cos 𝜔0 𝑛 + 𝑗 sin 𝜔0 𝑛 …..(9)
𝐴 𝑗∅ 𝑗𝜔 𝑛 𝐴 −𝑗∅ −𝑗𝜔 𝑛
A cos(𝜔0 𝑛 + ∅) = 𝑒 𝑒 0 + 𝑒 𝑒 0 ….(10)

General Complex Exponential Signal

If 𝛼 = 1, then real(Re{𝑥[𝑛]}) and imaginary (Im{𝑥[𝑛]}) parts of a complex
exponential sequence are sinusoidal.
𝑎 𝛼 =1

If 𝛼 > 1, corresponds to sinusoidal sequences multiplied by a growing exponential
If 𝛼 < 1, corresponds to sinusoidal sequences multiplied by a decaying exponential
(𝑐) 𝛼 < 1
(𝑏) 𝛼 > 1

Periodic Properties of Discrete-time complex
exponentials
Continuous-time counter part: 𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 𝑡
• The larger is the magnitude of 𝜔0 , the higher is the rate of oscillation in the
signal.
10
Discrete-Time case
• 𝑒𝑗 𝜔0 +2𝜋 𝑛 = 𝑒 𝑗2𝜋𝑛 . 𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 𝑛 = 𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 𝑛
11
• As 𝜔0 increases from ‘0’, the signal oscillates more and more rapidly until 𝜔0 = 𝜋. After this
the increase in 𝜔0 will decrease in the rate of oscillation until it is reached 𝜔0 =2𝜋, which
produces the same constant sequence as 𝜔0 =0
• So, low frequency (i.e. slowly varying) discrete-time exponentials have values of 𝜔0 near 0, 2𝜋
and any other even multiple of 𝜋, while high frequencies(rapid variations) are located near
𝜔0 = ±𝜋 and other odd multiple of 𝜋.
• In particular for 𝜔0 = 𝜋 or any odd multiple of 𝜋
𝑒 𝑗𝜋𝑛 = (𝑒 𝑗𝜋 )𝑛 = (−1)𝑛
It indicates signal oscillates rapidly (changing sign at each point in time).

Periodicity
𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 𝑛 will be periodic with period 𝑁 > 0, if 𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 (𝑛+𝑁) = 𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 𝑛
⇒ 𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 𝑛 . 𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 𝑁 = 𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 𝑛
⇒ 𝑒 𝑗𝜔0 𝑁 = 1
𝜔0 𝑁 must be multiple of 2𝜋. There must be an integer 𝑚 such that 𝜔0 𝑁 = 2𝜋𝑚

∅𝑘+𝑁 𝑛 = 𝑒 𝑁 . 𝑒 𝑗2𝜋𝑛 = ∅𝑘 [𝑛] ……..(11)

Unit Impulse and Unit Step Functions
0, 𝑛 < 0
Discrete-time unit step signal 𝑢[𝑛] is defined as 𝑢[𝑛]=ቊ
1, 𝑛 ≥ 0
21
Discrete-time unit impulse is the first difference of the discrete-time step
𝛿[𝑛] = 𝑢[𝑛] − 𝑢[𝑛 − 1]
22
The discrete-time unit step is the running sum of the unit sample
𝑢[𝑛] = σ𝑛𝑚=−∞ 𝛿[𝑚]………(12)
𝑛<0 𝑛>0
23
Put 𝑘 = 𝑛 − 𝑚 in eq(12)
0
𝑢[𝑛] = 𝛿[𝑛 − 𝑘]
𝑘=∞
𝑢[𝑛] = σ∞
𝑘=0 𝛿[𝑛 − 𝑘] …….(13)
𝑛>0
𝑛<0
24
Eq(13) can be interpreted as superposition of delayed impulses.
𝑢[𝑛] = σ∞
𝑘=0 𝛿[𝑛 − 𝑘])
25
The unit impulse sequence can be used to sample the value of a signal.
𝑥 𝑛 . 𝛿 𝑛 = 𝑥 0 . 𝛿[𝑛]
𝑥 𝑛 . 𝛿 𝑛 − 𝑛0 = 𝑥 𝑛0 . 𝛿[𝑛 − 𝑛0 ]
26
Continuous time unit-step and unit impulse function
27
The continuous time unit impulse function 𝛿(𝑡) is related to the unit step function
as
𝑡
𝑢 𝑡 = න 𝛿 𝜏 𝑑𝜏 … … … … … … … … (14)
−∞
𝑑𝑢(𝑡)
𝛿 𝑡 =
𝑑𝑡
𝑢(𝑡) is discontinuous at 𝑡 = 0
The arrow at 𝑡 = 0 indicates the area of the pulse is concentrated at 𝑡 = 0 and the
height of the arrow and ‘1’ next to arrow are used to represent area of the impulse
29
Scaled impulse 𝑘𝛿 𝑡 will have an area 𝑘, so
𝑡
න 𝑘𝛿 𝜏 𝑑𝜏 = 𝑘𝑢(𝑡)
−∞
𝑡
𝑢 𝑡 = −∞ 𝛿 𝜏 𝑑𝜏
Put 𝜎 = 𝑡 − 𝜏
𝑡
⇒ 𝑢 𝑡 = න 𝛿 𝑡 − 𝜎 (−𝑑𝜎)
−∞
⇒ 𝑢 𝑡 = න 𝛿 𝑡 − 𝜎 (𝑑𝜎) … … … … … … … … … (15)

𝑡 < 0 𝑡 < 0
𝑡 > 0 𝑡 > 0
𝑡 ∞
𝑢 𝑡 = න 𝛿 𝜏 𝑑𝜏 𝑢 𝑡 = න 𝛿 𝑡 − 𝜎 (𝑑𝜎)
