Convolution

Discrete-time linear and time-invariant (LTI) systems can be described by their unit pulse response via the convolution sum representation. The input-output behavior of an LTI system is completely determined by its unit pulse response. Several examples are provided to illustrate determining the unit pulse response and properties of LTI systems from given difference or convolution equations.

DT LTI Systems and Convolution) CONVOLUTION SUM FROM)

Discrete-time systems that are linear and time invariant often are referred to as LTI systems. LTI
systems comprise a very important class of systems, and they can be described by a standard
mathematical formalism. To each LTI system there corresponds a signal h[n] such that the inputoutput
behavior of the system is described by

This expression is called the convolution sum representation for LTI systems. In addition, the
sifting property easily shows that h[n] is the response of the system to a unit-pulse input signal.
That is, for x[n] = δ[n]

Thus the input-output behavior of a discrete-time, linear, time-invariant system is completely


described by the unit-pulse response of the system. If h[n] is known, then the response to any input
can be computed from the convolution sum.
Derivation It is straightforward to show that a system described by the convolution sum, with
specified h[n], is a linear and time-invariant system. Linearity is clear, and to show time invariance,
consider a shifted input signal xˆ[n] = x[n − no]. The system response to this input signal is given by

To rewrite this expression, change the summation index from k to l = k − N, to obtain

This establishes time invariance.
