Chapter 1

This document provides an introduction to discrete time signal processing. It defines a signal as a physical quantity that changes over time or another variable. A system is a physical device that processes or operates on a signal, such as a filter or amplifier. The document contrasts analog signal processing (ASP), where the input is an analog signal, from digital signal processing (DSP), where the input is a digital signal converted via an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) or digital-to-analog converter (DAC). It lists several advantages of DSP over ASP, such as more compact size, greater accuracy, flexibility, storage capacity, and processing power. Finally, it outlines several classifications of signals including continuous vs. discrete time and value,

Discrete Time Signal Processing

SIGNALS AND SYSTEM

INTRODUCTION

A SIGNAL is defined as any physical quantity that changes with time, distance, speed, position, pressure, temperature or
some other quantity.

A SIGNAL is physical quantity that consists of many sinusoidal of different amplitudes and frequencies.

Ex

x(t) = 10t

S(x,y) = 5x+20xy+30y

A System is a physical device that performs an operations or processing on a signal.

Ex Filter or Amplifier.
Basic Elements of Digital Signal Processing System
1) ASP (Analog signal Processing) : If the input signal given to the system is analog then system does analog signal
processing. Ex Resistor, capacitor or Inductor, OP-AMP etc.

2) DSP (Digital signal Processing) : If the input signal given to the system is digital then system does digital signal
processing. Ex Digital Computer, Digital Logic Circuits etc. The devices called as ADC (analog to digital Converter)
converts Analog signal into digital and DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) does vice-versa.
ADVANTAGES OF DSP OVER ASP

1. Physical size of analog systems is quite large while digital processors are more compact and light in weight.

2. Analog systems are less accurate because of component tolerance ex R, L, C and active components. Digital components are
less sensitive to the environmental changes, noise and disturbances.

3. Digital system is most flexible as software programs & control programs can be easily modified.

4. Digital signal can be stores on digital hard disk, floppy disk or magnetic tapes. Hence becomes transportable. Thus easy and
lasting storage capacity.

6. Digital controllers are capable of performing complex computation with constant accuracy at high speed.

7. Digital signal processing systems are upgradeable since that are software controlled.

8. Possibility of sharing DSP processor between several tasks.

9. The cost of microprocessors, controllers and DSP processors are continuously going down. For some complex control
functions, it is not practically feasible to construct analog controllers.

10. Single chip microprocessors, controllers and DSP processors are more versatile and powerful.
Classification of Signals:
Continuous time Versus Discrete time Signals
Continuous Valued Versus Discrete Valued Signals
Analog Versus Digital Signal
Analog System Versus Digital System
Deterministic Versus Random Signal
