Practice Question, ECE438 Fall 2013, Prof. Boutin

On computing the inverse z-transform of a discrete-time signal.


Compute the inverse z-transform of

$ X(z) =\frac{1}{3-z}, \quad \text{ROC} \quad |z|<3 $.

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

Answer 1

$ X[z] = \sum_{n=0}^{+\infty} 3^{-1-n} z^{n} $

$       = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} u[n] 3^{-1-n} z^{n} $
NOTE: Let n=-k

$ = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} u[-k] 3^{-1+k} z^{-k} $ (compare with $ \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} x[n] z^{-k} $)

$ = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} u[-k] 3^{-1+k} z^{-k} $

Therefore, x[n] = 3 − 1 + nu[ − n]

Answer 2

$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3-z} = \frac{1}{3} \frac{1}{1-\frac{z}{3}} $

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

Let n = -k

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

By comparison with the x-transform formula,

x[n] = 3n − 1u[ − n]

Answer 3

By Yeong Ho Lee

$ X[z] = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}z^{n}3^{-n-1} $

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

Now, let n = -k

$ = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} 3^{k-1}z^{-k}u[-k] $

Using the z-transform formula, x[n] = 3n − 1u[ − n]

Answer 4

Write it here.



Answer 5

By Yixiang Liu

$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3-Z} $


$ X(z) = \frac{\frac{1}{3}} { 1-\frac{Z}{3}} $

$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3} * \frac{1} { 1-\frac{Z}{3}} $

by geometric series

$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3} \sum_{n=0}^{+\infty} (\frac{z}{3})^n $

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

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

$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3} \sum_{k=-\infty}^{+\infty} u[-k](\frac{1}{3})^{-k} Z^{-k} $

By comparison with the x-transform formula

$ x[n] = \frac{1}{3} u[-n](\frac{1}{3})^{-n} $

$ x[n] = (\frac{1}{3})^{-n+1} u[-n] $

x[n] = 3n − 1u[ − n]


Answer 6 - Ryan Atwell

$ X(z) =\frac{1}{3-z}, \quad \text{ROC} \quad |z|<3 $

$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3} \frac{1}{1-\frac{z}{3}} $

$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3} \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} (\frac{z}{3})^{n} $

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

n=-k


$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3} \sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty} u[-k](\frac{z}{3})^{-k} $

$ X(z) = \frac{1}{3} \sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty} u[-k]{3}^{k}{z}^{-k} $


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

by formula

$ X[n]={3}^{n-1}u[-n] $
