Basic Operations performed on Independent Variable

Time Scaling
Let 𝑥(𝑡) be a CT signal. The signal 𝑦(𝑡) obtained by scaling independent
variable, 𝑡, by a factor ′𝑎′ is given by

𝑦(𝑡) = 𝑥(𝑎𝑡)

Figure 1.10 demonstrate the concepts of time scaling. Note that,


○ when 𝑎 > 1, 𝑦(𝑡) is the compressed version of 𝑥(𝑡) and
○ if 𝑎 < 1, 𝑦(𝑡) is the expanded version of 𝑥(𝑡).

In case of DT signal, we write

y(𝑛) = 𝑥(𝑎𝑛),

Figure 1.11 demonstrate the concepts of time scaling in DT signals.

Time Shift or Time Delay/Advancing


Time Shift or Time Delay/Advancing
Let 𝑥(𝑡) be a CT signal. Replacing 𝑡 by 𝑡 + 𝑏 results in a time shifted signal
𝑦(𝑡) defined by

𝑦(𝑡) = 𝑥(𝑡 + 𝑏)

○ If 𝑏 < 0, 𝑥(𝑡) is shifted to right by an amount, 𝑏 𝑠𝑒𝑐𝑠.


○ If 𝑏 > 0, 𝑥(𝑡) is shifted to left by 𝑏 𝑠𝑒𝑐𝑠.

Figure 1.12, demonstrate the time shift operation for CT signal.

Similarly, for DT signal we write,

𝑦(𝑛) = 𝑥(𝑛 + 𝑏)

Figure 1.13 demonstrate the time shift operation for DT signal.

Time Reflection/Folding
Time Reflection/Folding
Let 𝑥(𝑡) be a CT signal. The reflected version of 𝑥(𝑡) is obtained by replacing
𝑡 with −𝑡 . The signal 𝑦(𝑡) = 𝑥(−𝑡) represents the reflected version of 𝑥(𝑡)
about the vertical axis.

Similarly, for DT signal 𝑥(𝑛). The reflected version of 𝑥(𝑛) is obtained by


replacing 𝑛 with −𝑛. 𝑦(𝑛) = 𝑥(−𝑛) represents the reflected version of 𝑥(𝑛).

The figure 1.14 and 1.15 represents the time reflection operation performed on
CT and DT signal respectively

If both time shifting and time scaling operation has to be applied on a given signal
𝑥(𝑡). What is the correct sequence to be followed to get the correct result?
Precedence Rule for time-shifting and time-scaling.

Let
𝑦(𝑡) = 𝑥(𝑎𝑡 + 𝑏)

The above relation between 𝑥(𝑡) & 𝑦(𝑡) must satisfy the following
conditions.
𝑦(0) = 𝑥(𝑏)
−𝑏
𝑦 ⎯⎯⎯ = 𝑥(0)
𝑎

In order to satisfy the above condition, first time-shifting is applied to the


signal 𝑥(𝑡) and then followed by time-scaling.

Example
Let us consider a rectangular pulse 𝑥(𝑡) of amplitude 1 and duration
−1 ≤ 𝑡 ≤ 1. The signal 𝑦(𝑡) = 𝑥(−2𝑡 + 3) is obtained from the 𝑥(𝑡) as
demonstrated in the figure 1.16 using the precedence rule.
