Chapter 10
1. The z-Transform The z-Transform is the more general case of the discrete-time Fourier transform. For the DT Fourier transform $ z = e^{j\omega } $ with $ \omega $ real $ \Rightarrow |z| = 1 $. When z is not restricted to 1, it has the form $ re^{j\omega} $. This can be developed into the more general case of transform called z-Transform. The development of the z-Transform is outlined in Chapter 10.1 of the Oppenheim and Wilsky text.
- $ X(z) = \sum_{n = -\infty}^{+\infty}x[n]z^{-n} $
2. Region of Convergence for the z-Transform
3. The Inverse z-Transform
The derivation of the inverse z-Transform equation is outlined in chapter 10.3 of the text (pg 757-8).
- $ x[n] = \frac{1}{2\pi j} \oint X(z)z^{n-1}\,dz $
This is a closed loop integral around a CCW rotation centered at the origin with radius r. r can be any value for which X(z) converges.
