Analysis of Discrete Time Linear Time
Invariant Systems
There are two basic methods for analyzing
the behavior or response of a linear system
to a given input signal.

The Convolution Sum (cont.)
Let the operator H denote the system to which the
input x[n] is applied. Thus using (1) to represent
the input x[n] to the system results in the output
y[n] H x[k ][n k ]
k

where h[n-k] = H{[n-k]}.
The sum in (3) is termed the Convolution Sum and
is denoted by the symbol *, that is,

Steps to compute Convolution Sum
1- Folding: fold h[k] about k=0, to obtain h[-k].

Example 3: Determine the output y[n] of a linear
time invariant system with impulse response h[n] =
anu[n], |a| < 1, when the input is a unit step
sequence, that is x[n] = u[n].

of two linear time-invariant systems having
impulse responses h1[n]=(1/2)nu[n] and

Tutorial 5:
Find the convolution of the two sequences x[n] and
h[n] given by,
1- x[n] = [3 1 2] h[n] = [3 2 1]
