Basic Components of the System

Discrete-time system can be represented using block diagram. There are a few basic
components such as adder, constant multiplier, signal multiplier, unit delay, unit advance.

Adder

Adder can be used to add two or more signals.

Basic Components of the System
Constant Multiplier

This operation is show in the below figure, which multiplies input x[n] with a scale factor.

3
Basic Components of the System
Signal Multiplier

This operation multiplies two signals, these are and .

4
Basic Components of the System
Unit Delay

This operation delays a signal that goes through it by one sample. Assume the input is , then the output is .

5
Basic Components of the System
Unit Advance

This operation is contrast with Unit Delay that is, advancing signal by one sample.

6
Difference Equation

Different approach to represent discrete-time system through the use of different equation that can be
expressed as the follows.

or

7
Difference Equation

Given a difference equation , , find out y[n].

The equation can be expressed as the follows

Thus, the value of
