Practice Problem on Z-transform computation

Compute the compute the z-transform (including the ROC) of the following DT signal:

$ x[n]= n^2 \left( u[n+3]- u[n-1] \right) $

(Write enough intermediate steps to fully justify your answer.)

Answer 1

x[n] = n2(u[n + 2] − u[n − 1]).

$ X(z) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} x[n] z^{-n} $

$ = \sum_{n=-3}^{0} n^2 z^{-n} $

= 9z3 + 4z2 + z

= z3(9 + 4z − 1 + z − 2)

= X(z) = (9 + 4z − 1 + z − 2) / (z − 3), for all z in complex plane.

Answer 2

Muhammad Syafeeq Safaruddin

x[n] = n2(u[n + 3] − u[n − 1])

x[n] = n2(δ(n + 3) + δ(n + 2) + δ(n + 1) + δ(n))

$ X(z) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} x[n] z^{-n} $

$ X(z) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} n^2(\delta(n+3)+\delta(n+2)+\delta(n+1)+\delta(n)) z^{-n} $

X(z) = 9z3 + 4z2 + z + 1 for all z in complex plane

Answer 4

Write it here.

Answer 5

Tony Mlinarich

$ X(z) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} x[n] z^{-n} $

$ X(z) = n^2(\delta (n+3)+\delta (n+2)+\delta (n+1)+\delta (n)+\delta (n-1)) z^{-n} $

X(z) = 9z3 + 4z2 + z + 1/z<\span>

Answer 7

Yixiang Liu

$ X(z) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} x[n] z^{-n} $

$ X(z) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} n^{2}[{u[n+3]-u[n-1]}]z^{-n} $

This expression equals to zero except n = -3, -2, -1

so $ X(z) = x[-3]z^{3} + x[-2]z^{2} + x[-1]z^{1} $

      = 9z^{3} + 4z^{2} + z
