Chapter 8
z-Transform for Discrete-Time Signals and Systems
Chapter Objectives
- Learn the z-transform as a more generalized version of the discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT) studied in Chapter 5.
- Understand the convergence characteristics of the z-transform and the concept of region of convergence.
- Explore the properties of the z-transform.
- Understand the use of the z-transform for modeling DTLTI systems. Learn the z-domain system function and its use for solving signal-system interaction problems.
- Learn techniques for obtaining block diagrams for DTLTI systems based on the z-domain system function.
- Learn the use of the unilateral z-transform for solving difference equations with specified initial conditions.
