1 Signals and Systems 1.1 Continuous-Time and Discrete-Time Signals Examples
1.1 Continuous-Time and Discrete-Time Signals Signals are represented mathematically as functions of one or more independent variables. 1-Dimension Signals: involve a single independent variable. We focus our attention on 1-Dimension Signals. We will generally refer to the independent variable as time, although it may not in fact represent time in specific applications.
1.1 Continuous-Time and Discrete-Time Signals Continuous-Time Signals: The independent variable is continuous, and thus these signals are defined for a continuum of values of the independent variable. Discrete-Time Signals: The independent variable is discrete. and thus these signals are defined only at discrete times.
1.1 Continuous-Time and Discrete-Time Signals A discrete-time signal x[n] may represent a phenomenon for which the independent variable is inherently discrete. On the other hand, a very important class of discrete-time signals arises from the sampling of continuous-time signals.
