where each term in the sum, x(k)δ(n - k), is a signal that has an
amplitude of x(k) at time n = k and a value of zero for all other
values of n. This decomposition is the discrete version of the shifting
property for continuous-time signals and is used in the derivation of
the convolution sum.
Discrete time systems
A Discrete time systems is a mathematical operator or mapping that
transforms one discrete time signal (the input x(n)) into another discrete time
signal (the output y(n)) by means of a fixed set of rules or operations.
The relationship between x(n) and y(n) is expressed as:
y(n) = T[x(n)]
The notation T [ . ] is used to represent a general system, in which an input signal
x(n) is transformed into an output signal y(n) through the transformation T [ . ]
Classification of Discrete time systems
Static versus dynamic systems.
A discrete-time system is called static or memoryless if its output at any instant n depends at most on the input
sample at the same time, but not on past or future samples of the input.
The system is said to be dynamic or to have memory. If the output of a system at time n is completely
determined by the input samples in the interval from n ± N to n (N > 0), the system is said to have memory of
duration N.
If N = 0, the system is static. If o < N < ∞, the system is said to have finite memory, whereas if N = ∞, the
system is said to have infinite memory.
The systems described by the following input-output equations are both static or memory less.
The systems described by the following input-output relations are dynamic systems or systems with memory.
If, for some bounded input sequence x(n), the output is unbounded
(infinite), the system is classified as unstable.

Invertible systems
A system is said to be invertible if the input to the system may
be uniquely determined from the output. In order for a system
to be invertible, it is necessary for distinct inputs to produce
distinct outputs. In other words, given any two inputs x 1(n)
and x2(n) with x1(n) ≠ x2(n), it must be true that y1(n) ≠ y2(n).
