Systems
• “Signal” = a time-varying voltage (or other quantity) that
generally carries some information
• The job of the “System” is often to extract, modify, transform,
or manipulate that carried information
• So… a big part of “Signals & Systems” is using
math models to see what a system “does” to a signal

Some Application Areas
From Table 32.1 in Electrical Engineering
Uncovered, 2nd Ed., by White & Doering

Application Area Specific Uses of Signals & Systems


Telecommunications Answering machines, modems, fax machines, cell phones, speaker phones

Speech and Audio Voice mail, speaker verification, synthetic speech, audio compression (e.g.,
mp3)
Automotive Engine control, antilock braking systems, active suspension, airbag
control, system diagnosis
Medical Hearing aids, remote monitoring, ultrasound imaging, magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI)
Image Processing 3D animation, image enhancement, image compression (JPEG), video
compression (MPEG), high-definition TV
Control Systems Head positioning in disk drives, laser control (e.g., printers, CD/DVD drives),
engine & motor control, robots
Military & Aerospace Radar & sonar, navigation systems (e.g., GPS), secure communications,
missile guidance, battlefield sensors

In each of these areas you can’t build the electronics until your math
models tell you what you need to build 3/5
Continuous-Time & Discrete-Time
• Modern systems generally…
– get a continuous-time signal from a sensor
– a cont.-time system modifies the signal
– an “analog-to-digital converter” (ADC or A-to-D) sample the signal to create a
discrete-time signal … a “stream of numbers”
– A discrete-time system to do the processing
– convert back to C-T signal with a “Digital-to-Analog Converter” (DAC)
x(t) x[n] x[n] is just a “stream of
A time-varying
voltage (or current) numbers”
