Prove that the complex exponential signal x(t) = e jω t is periodic and that the fundamental period is 2π ω. [M/J 11], [N/D 9], [M/J 9], [N/D 7] The condition for periodic signal is x(t)=x(t+t) e jω t = e jω (t+t) e jω t = e jω t e jω T Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering 127
e jωt = e jωt (cosω T + jsinω T) e jωt = e jωt [cos(2πft) + jsin(2πft)] e jωt = e jωt [cos(2π) + jsin(2π)] f = 1/T e jωt = e jω t [cos(2π) + jsin(2π)] = 1 Hence the given complex exponential signal x(t) = e jω t is periodic.

When is a system said to be memoryless? [M/J 1] A system is said to be memoryless if its output for each value of the independent variable is dependent only on the input at that same time. For example, the following system equation (1) is memoryless, as the value of y[n] at particular time n depends only on the value of x[n] at that time. y[n] = (2x[n] x[n]) 2. (1) 8. Prove that the system classified by y(t) = e x(t) is time invariant or not. [M/J 7] A system is said to be time-invariant if its input-output characteristics do not change with time. Given signal is y(t) = e x(t) To check this system is time invariant, it is necessary to determine whether the time invariance property holds for any input and any time shift t. Let x 1 (t) be an arbitrary input to this system and y 1 (t) = e x 1(t) ------------- (1) be the corresponding output. Then consider a second input obtained by shifting x1(t) in time: x 2 (t) = x 1 (t t ) ------------- (2) The output corresponding to this input is
y 2 (t) = e x 2(t) = e x 1(t t ) ------------- (3) The delayed output from equation (1) is y 1 (t t ) = e x 1(t t ) ------------ (4) Comparing equation (3) and (4), y 2 (t) = y 1 (t t ), (input-output characteristics do not change with time). Hence this system is time invariant. 9. Write any two properties of discrete time systems. [N/D 6] The properties of discrete time systems are i. Stability ii. Linearity 1.

Condition iii: In any finite interval of time there are only finite numbers of discontinuities. Furthermore, each of these discontinuities must be finite 2. Define Fourier Series [N/D 9] Any periodic signal can be represented as an infinite sum of the sine and cosine functions which themselves are periodic signals of angular frequencies,, Ω,., kω. This series of sine and cosine terms are known as trignometric Fourier series and can be written as x(t) = a + [a n cos (nω t + b n sin(nω t))] n=1 where a n,b n are constants a is coefficient, also called dc component. 3. Determine the Fourier series coefficients for the signal cos(πt). [M/J 12] The Fourier series coefficients for the signal cos(πt) is determined by simply expand the cosine function as a linear combination of complex exponentials and identify by inspection of Fourier series coefficients. The cos(πt) can be expressed as cos(πt) = ejπt +e jπt 2 ----------------- (1) In general x(t) can be represented as x(t) = a k e jkω t k= ---------------(2) Compare equation number (1) and (2) possible values of k are k=1, k=-1 and k 1 or 1 a 1 = 1 2, a 1 = 1 2 and a k =, k 1 or 1 Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering 131

Increase the time shift t and take the new interval whenever the function of either x(τ) or h(t- τ) changes, and calculate y(t) for this new interval using Step iv. vi. Repeat step v and iv for all intervals. Impulse response 3. What is the impulse response of two LTI system connected in parallel? [M/J 1] If the two systems whose impulse responses h 1 (t) and h 2 (t) are in parallel, then the overall impulse response is h(t) = h 1 (t) + h 2 (t). 4. Prove that the causality of the system with impulse response h(t) = e t u(t). [N/D 12] A system is said to be causal if the output at time t, depends on the present and past inputs but not future inputs. These systems are called non anticipative systems. h(t) = for t < for causal system. In the given system, substitute t = -1 h(-1) = e (-1) u(-1) u(-1) = for t <. So the system is causal.
