Practice Question on Computing the inverse z-transform
Compute the inverse z-transform of the following signal.
$ X(z)=\frac{1}{1+3z} \mbox{, } \Big|z\Big|>\frac{1}{3} $
Prof. Mimi gave me this problem in class on Friday, so I'm posting it and my answer here. --Cmcmican 22:38, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
Answer 1
$ X(z)=\frac{1}{3z}\frac{1}{(1+\frac{1}{3z})} $
since $ \Bigg|z\Bigg|>\frac{1}{3} ==>\Bigg|\frac{1}{z}\Bigg|<3 ==>\Bigg|\frac{1}{3}\frac{1}{z}\Bigg|<1 $
$ X(z)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{1}{3z}\Bigg(\frac{1}{3z}\Bigg)^k=\sum_{k=-\infty}^\infty u[k] \Bigg(\frac{1}{3}\Bigg)^{k+1}z^{-(k+1)} $
let n=k+1
$ =\sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty u[n-1]\Bigg(\frac{1}{3}\Bigg)^{n}z^{-n} $
By comparison with $ \sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty x[n] z^{-n}: $
$ x[n]=\Bigg(\frac{1}{3}\Bigg)^{n}u[n-1]\, $
