3. Oh beer… An infinite amount of mathematicians walk into a bar. The first one orders a beer. The second one orders half a beer. The third one orders one quarter of a beer. The fourth one starts to order, but the bartender interrupts "Here's two beers; you lot can figure the rest out yourself." Leo Lam © 2010-2012

4. Today’s menu To do: –If you still haven’t: join the Facebook Group! –From Wednesday: Describing Common Signals –Introduced the three “building blocks” –General description for sinusoidal signals –Started Periodicity Today: –Finish Periodicity –Manipulating signals!

5. Periodic signals Definition: x(t) is periodic if there exists a T (time period) such that: The minimum T is the period Fundamental frequency f 0 =1/T Leo Lam © 2010-2012 For all integers n

6. Your turn! Find the period of: Leo Lam © 2010-2012 No LCM exists! Why? Because LCM exists only if T 1 /T 2 is a rational number

7. A few more Leo Lam © 2010-2012 Not rational, so not periodic Decaying term means pattern does not repeat exactly, so not periodic

9. Playing with signals Operations with signals –add, subtract, multiply, divide signals pointwise –time delay, scaling, reversal Properties of signals (cont.) –even and odd Leo Lam © 2010-2011

10. Adding signals Leo Lam © 2010-2011 1 1 123 t t + = ?? x(t) y(t) 1 t 123 x(t)+y(t)

11. Delay signals Leo Lam © 2010-2011 unit pulse signal (memorize) t 0 1 1 What does y(t)=p(t-3) look like? P(t) 0 34

12. Multiply signals Leo Lam © 2010-2011

13. Scaling time Leo Lam © 2010-2011 Speed-up: y(t)=x(2t) is x(t) sped up by a factor of 2 t 0 1 1 t 0 1.5 y(t)=x(2t) How could you slow x(t) down by a factor of 2? y(t)=x(t)

14. Scaling time Leo Lam © 2010-2011 y(t)=x(t/2) is x(t) slowed down by a factor of 2 t 01 t 01 y(t)=x(t/2) 2 -2 y(t)=x(t)

15. Playing with signals Leo Lam © 2010-2011 What is y(t) in terms of the unit pulse p(t)? t 8 3 5 t 0 1 1 Need: 1.Wider (x-axis) factor of 2 2.Taller (y-axis) factor of 8 3.Delayed (x-axis) 3 seconds

16. Playing with signals Leo Lam © 2010-2011 t 8 3 5 in terms of unit pulse p(t) t 8 2 first step: 3 5 t 8 second step:

17. Playing with signals Leo Lam © 2010-2011 t 8 3 5 in terms of unit pulse p(t) t 8 2 first step: 3 5 t 8 second step: replace t by t-3: Is it correct?

18. Playing with signals Leo Lam © 2010-2011 3 5 t 8 Double-check: pulse starts: pulse ends:

19. Do it in reverse Leo Lam © 2010-2011 t Sketch 1

20. Do it in reverse Leo Lam © 2010-2011 t Let then that is, y(t) is a delayed pulse p(t-3) sped up by 3. 1 1 4/3 1 3 4 Double-check pulse starts: 3t-3 = 0 pulse ends: 3t-3=1

21. Order matters Leo Lam © 2010-2011 With time operations, order matters y(t)=x(at+b) can be found by: Shift by b then scale by a (delay signal by b, then speed it up by a) w(t)=x(t+b)  y(t)=w(at)=x(at+b) Scale by a then shift by b/a w(t)=x(at)  y(t)=w(t+b/a)=x(a(t+b/a))=x(at+b)

22. Playing with time Leo Lam © 2010-2011 t 1 What does look like? 2 1 -2 Time reverse of speech: Also a form of time scaling, only with a negative number

23. Playing with time Leo Lam © 2010-2011 t 1 2 Describe z(t) in terms of w(t) 1 -213 t

24. Playing with time Leo Lam © 2010-2011 time reverse it: x(t) = w(-t) delay it by 3: z(t) = x(t-3) so z(t) = w(-(t-3)) = w(-t + 3) t 1 2 1 -21 3 x(t) you replaced the t in x(t) by t-3. so replace the t in w(t) by t-3: x(t-3) = w(-(t-3))

25. Playing with time Leo Lam © 2010-2011 z(t) = w(-t + 3) t 1 2 1 -21 3 x(t) Doublecheck: w(t) starts at 0 so -t+3 = 0 gives t= 3, this is the start (tip) of the triangle z(t). w(t) ends at 2 So -t+3=2 gives t=1, z(t) ends there

26. Summary: Arithmetic: Add, subtract, multiple Time: delay, scaling, shift, mirror/reverse And combination of those Leo Lam © 2010-2011

28. Even and odd signals Leo Lam © 2010-2012 An even signal is such that: t Symmetrical across the t=0 axis t Asymmetrical across the t=0 axis An odd signal is such that:
