Signals and Systems: Answer

1. A continuous-time signal is a quantity that depends on an independent variable, usually time, such as voltage in a circuit or room temperature over time. 2. A signal conveys data from one place to another, such as an electric current. The simplest signal is direct current. 3. Signals can be classified as discrete, continuous, periodic, non-periodic, causal, and non-causal.

Signals And Systems

1. Question 1. Define Continuous-time Signal?


Answer :
A continuous-time signal is a quantity of interest that depends on an independent
variable, where we usually think of the independent variable as time. Two
examples are the voltage at a particular node in an electrical circuit and the room
temperature at a particular spot, both as functions of time.
2. Question 2. Define Signal?
Answer :
In electronics, a signal is an electric current or electromagnetic field used to
convey data from one place to another. The simplest form of signal is a direct
current (DC).
