Continuous-Time Signals
The signal is the actual physical
phenomenon that carries information, and
the function is a mathematical description
of the signal.
Complex Exponentials & Sinusoids
Signals can be expressed in sinusoid or complex exponential.

Where A is the amplitude of a sinusoid or complex exponential, T
o
is
the real fundamental period of sinusoid, f
o
is real fundamental cyclic
frequency of sinusoid,
o
is the real fundamental radian frequency of
sinusoid, t is time and
o
is a real damping rate.
sinusoids
complex exponentials
In signals and systems, sinusoids are expressed in
either of two ways :
a. cyclic frequency f form - A cos (2f
o
t+ )
b. radian frequency form - A cos (
o
t+ )
Sinusoids and exponentials are important in signal
and system analysis because they arise naturally in
the solutions of the differential equations.
Singularity functions and related
functions
In the consideration of singularity functions,
we will extend, modify, and/or generalized
some basic mathematical concepts and
operation to allow us to efficiently analyze
real signals and systems.

The unit ramp function is the integral of the unit step function.
It is called the unit ramp function because for positive t, its
slope is one amplitude unit per time.

The order of the changes is important. For example, if we
exchange the order of the time-scaling and time-shifting
operations, we get:
Amplitude scaling, time scaling and time shifting can be applied
simultaneously.

Differentiation and Integration
Integration and differentiation are common
signal processing operations in real systems.
The derivative of a function at any time t is
its slope at the time.
The integral of a function at any time t is
accumulated area under the function up to
that time.

The signal energy of a signal x(t) is
All physical activity is mediated by a transfer of energy.
No real physical system can respond to an excitation unless it has
energy.
Signal energy of a signal is defined as the area under the square
of the magnitude of the signal.
The units of signal energy depends on the unit of the signal.
If the signal unit is volt (V), the energy of that signal is expressed
in V
2
.s.
Signal Energy and Power
Some signals have infinite signal energy. In that case
it is more convenient to deal with average signal power.

Signal Energy and Power

called an energy signal.

Sampling a Continuous-Time Signal
to Create a Discrete-Time Signal
Sampling is the acquisition of the values of a
continuous-time signal at discrete points in time
x(t) is a continuous-time signal, x[n] is a discrete-

DT Sinusoids
There are some important differences
between CT and DT sinusoids.
If we create a DT sinusoid by sampling CT
sinusoid, the period of the DT sinusoid may
not be readily apparent and in fact the DT
sinusoid may not even be periodic.
