Signals are variables that carry information. Examples of signal include: Electrical signals o Voltages and currents in a circuit Acoustic signals o Acoustic pressure (sound) over time Mechanical signals o Velocity of a car over time Video signals o Intensity level of a pixel (camera, video) over time 6/26  How is a Signal Represented? Mathematically, signals are represented as a function of one or more independent variables. For instance a black & white video signal intensity is dependent on x, y coordinates and time t f(x,y,t) On this course, we shall be exclusively concerned with signals that are a function of a single variable: time f(t) t 7/26  What a Signal is? A signal is a mathematical representation that describes a physical phenomenon. Only one-dimensional signals are considered and the independent variable is referred to as the time. Examples: Speech Signal Picture Signal 8/26  Classification of Signals A signal is a continuous-time (CT) signal if it is defined for a continuum of values of the independent variable, t. A signal is discrete-time (DT) if it is defined only at discrete times and the independent variable takes on only a discrete set of values. 9/26  Analog vs. Digital If a continuous-time signal x(l) can take on any value in the continuous interval (a, b), where may be -  and b may be +, then the continuous-time signal x(t) is called an analog signal. Digital is a discrete or non-continuous waveform with examples such as computer 1s and 0s. 10/26  Real and complex signals A signal x(t) is a real signal if its value is a real number, and a signal x(t) is a complex signal if its value is a complex number. A general complex signal x(t) is a function of the form x( t ) = x1( t ) + j x2( t ) where x1( t ) and x2( t ) are real signals and j= 1 11/26  Even and Odd Signals A signal x(t) or x[n] is referred to as an even signal if x(-t) = x(t) x[-n] = x[n] 12/26  Even and Odd Signals cont., A signal x(t) or x[n] is referred to as an odd signal if x(-t) = -x(t) x[-n] = -x[n] 13/26  Periodic and Non-periodic Signals A continuous-time signal x(t) is said to be periodic with period T if there is a positive nonzero value of T for which x(t + T) = x(t) for all t An example of such a signal is shown below 14/26  Periodic and Non-periodic Signals cont., From this equation x(t + T) = x(t) it follows that x(t + mT) = x(t) for all t and any integer m. Note that this definition does not work for a constant signal x(t). Any continuous-time signal which is not periodic is called a non-periodic (or aperiodic) signal. 15/26  Periodic and Non-periodic Signals cont., Periodic discrete-time signals are defined analogously. A sequence (discrete-time signal) x[n] is periodic with period N if there is a positive integer N for which x[n + N] = x[n] for all n 16/26  Periodic and Non-periodic Signals cont., From the following equation x[n + N] = x[n] It follows that x[n + mN] = x[n] for all n and any integer m. Any sequence which is not periodic is called a non-periodic (or aperiodic) sequence. 17/26  Causal vs. Anticausal vs. Noncausal Signals Causal signals are signals that are zero for all negative time. Anti-causal signals are signals that are zero for all positive time. 18/26  Causal vs. Anticausal vs. Noncausal Signals Non-causal signals are signals that have nonzero values in both positive and negative time. 19/26  Signal Energy and Power The total energy over an interval t1
