1.1.2 Discrete-Time Deterministic Signals
Let us suppose that x
is a real- or complex-valued deterministic sequence,
where n takes integer values, and which is obtained by uniformly sampling the
continuous-time signal x
(
n
)
(
)
(
)
E =
t
; read Section 1.2. If x
n
has finite energy
n =−∞ |
2
(
) |
<
, then it has the frequency domain representation (discrete-
time Fourier transform)
x

e j ω n
X
(ω) =
x
(
n
)
,
n
=−∞
or equivalently
e j 2 π fn
X
(
f
) =
x
(
n
)
.
n
=−∞
It should be noted that X
(
f
)
is periodic with a period of one and X
(ω)
is periodic
with a period of 2
.
The inverse discrete-time Fourier transform that yields the deterministic se-
quence x
π
(
n
)
from X
(ω)
or X
(
f
)
is given by

Notice that the integration limits are related to the periodicity of the spectra.

The energy density spectrum
E x (
f
)
of a deterministic discrete-time signal x
(
n
)
can also be found by means of the autocorrelation sequence
x (
r x (
k
) =
n
)
x
(
n
+
k
)
n
=−∞
via the discrete-time Fourier transform
e j 2 π fk
E x (
f
) =
r x (
k
)
.
k
=−∞
That is, for a discrete-time signal, the Fourier transform pair is
r x (
k
) E x (
f
).
1.1.3 Unit Impulse
In signal analysis a frequently used deterministic signal is the unit impulse. In
continuous time the unit impulse
δ(
t
)
, also called the delta function, may be de-
fined by the following relation:
δ(
t
)
x

t
)

),

0. Its area is −∞ δ(
where x
(
t
)
is an arbitrary signal continuous at t
=
t
)
dt
