Linear Shift-Invariant Systems. Linear. If x(t) and y(t) are two input signals to a system, the system is linear if H[a*x(t) + b*y(t)] = aH[x(t)] + bH[y(t)] Where H specifies the transformation performed on the signal by the system. Shift Invariant.

Linear • If x(t) and y(t) are two input signals to a system, the system is linear if • H[a*x(t) + b*y(t)] = aH[x(t)] + bH[y(t)] • Where H specifies the transformation performed on the signal by the system
Shift Invariant • If xO(t) = H[x(t)] then H[x(t-τ)] = xO(t - τ)
If the input is x(t) = A Cos(2πf0t + θ) The response to x(t) is H[x(t)] = A H[Cos(2πf0t + θ)] = Aout Cos(2πf0t + θout)] Properties of an LSI
Transfer function of an LSI • Consider the response of an LSI to a complex sinusoid
If input is periodic then If input is finite duration
The Fourier Transform of the impulse response function is the transfer function of the linear system. • The Inverse Fourier Transform of the transfer function is the impulse response function of the linear system. • This is a very powerful result. • The easiest way to design a filter is to select an impulse response function
Designing a filter • A bandpass filter can be designed by taking an impulse response function that starts at t=0, reaches a single peak and declines to zero with time. • The longer the impulse response, the narrower the filter. • To set the center frequency,fc, of the filter, multiply it by Cos(2 π fc t).
Transfer function with zero phase shift • Consider a rectangular filter with no phase shift
