INTRODUCTION
The common scenario in today’s electronic system is to do most
of the processing of a signal using a computer.
A computer can’t directly process a C-T signal but instead needs
a stream of numbers… which is a D-T signal.
INTRODUCTION
Discrete-time signals are functions of a discrete variable; that is, they
are defined only for integer values of the independent variable (time
steps).
Speed CT signal processing is its higher speed than DT
DT systems are not as fast as their counterparts in the CT domain due
to limits on the sampling rate of the A/D converter and the clock rate
of the processor used to implement the DT systems.
Disadvantage CT Signal Processing:
limited performance range
tend to vary with changes in the operating conditions and with age.
more sensitive to noise and interference
Characteristic/ Advantage DT Signal
improved flexibility, self-calibration, and data-logging.
more flexible and can be reprogrammed such that the same
hardware can be used in a variety of different applications.
less sensitive to noise and interference
the data available from the DT systems can be stored in a
digital server so that the performance of the system can be
monitored over a long period of time.
DT SIGNAL TRANSFORMATION
Time scaling : y[n]= x[n] where - integer
For > 1: x[n] is undefined for fractional values of n.
In this case, called decimation or down-sampling, we not
only get a time compression of the signal, but the signal can
also lose part of its information that is, some of its values may
disappear in the resulting signal y[n].
DT SIGNAL TRANSFORMATION
Time Reversal : A time reversal is achieved by multiplying
the time variable by –1.
Solution:
1. Memoryless? No. For example, the output, y[n] depends on a
future value of the input.
2. Time-invariant? No
