DSP - Classification of DT Signals
Just pke Continuous time signals, Discrete time signals can be classified according to the conditions or operations on the signals.
Even and Odd Signals
Even Signal
A signal is said to be even or symmetric if it satisfies the following condition;
$$x(-n) = x(n)$$Here, we can see that x(-1) = x(1), x(-2) = x(2) and x(-n) = x(n). Thus, it is an even signal.
Odd Signal
A signal is said to be odd if it satisfies the following condition;
$$x(-n) = -x(n)$$From the figure, we can see that x(1) = -x(-1), x(2) = -x(2) and x(n) = -x(-n). Hence, it is an odd as well as anti-symmetric signal.
Periodic and Non-Periodic Signals
A discrete time signal is periodic if and only if, it satisfies the following condition −
$$x(n+N) = x(n)$$Here, x(n) signal repeats itself after N period. This can be best understood by considering a cosine signal −
$$x(n) = A cos(2pi f_{0}n+ heta)$$ $$x(n+N) = Acos(2pi f_{0}(n+N)+ heta) = Acos(2pi f_{0}n+2pi f_{0}N+ heta)$$ $$= Acos(2pi f_{0}n+2pi f_{0}N+ heta)$$For the signal to become periodic, following condition should be satisfied;
$$x(n+N) = x(n)$$ $$Rightarrow Acos(2pi f_{0}n+2pi f_{0}N+ heta) = A cos(2pi f_{0}n+ heta)$$i.e. $2pi f_{0}N$ is an integral multiple of $2pi$
$$2pi f_{0}N = 2pi K$$ $$Rightarrow N = frac{K}{f_{0}}$$Frequencies of discrete sinusoidal signals are separated by integral multiple of $2pi$.
Energy and Power Signals
Energy Signal
Energy of a discrete time signal is denoted as E. Mathematically, it can be written as;
$$E = displaystyle sumpmits_{n=-infty}^{+infty}|x(n)|^2$$If each inspanidual values of $x(n)$ are squared and added, we get the energy signal. Here $x(n)$ is the energy signal and its energy is finite over time i.e $0< E< infty$
Power Signal
Average power of a discrete signal is represented as P. Mathematically, this can be written as;
$$P = pm_{N o infty} frac{1}{2N+1}displaystylesumpmits_{n=-N}^{+N} |x(n)|^2$$Here, power is finite i.e. 0<P<∞. However, there are some signals, which belong to neither energy nor power type signal.
