Determine if the following are:
- Memoryless
- Time Invariant
- Linear
- Causal
- Stable
A)
- y(t)=x(t-2) + x(2-t)
- Let x3=ax1(t) + bx2(t)
- then the output of the function is y(t)=x3(t-2) + x(2-t) = (ax1(t-2) + bx2(t-s)) + (ax1(2-t) + bx2(2-t))
- Therefore the signal is Linear.
- x(t-T)-->S-->y(t)=x(t-T-2) + x(2-t-T) = x(t-T)
- Therefore the signal is Time Invariant because the output will be shifted by the same amount that the input was shifted by.
- Assuming that x(t) is bounded then the output y(t) is also bound because it is the sum of two bound functions.
- Since there is a time shift in both the positive and negative direction, the function is neither memoryless or causal.
- This function is Linear, Time Invariant, and Stable.
B)
- y(t)=[cos(3t)]x(t)
- Since there is no time shift in the output function it is both memoryless and causal.
- Let x3=ax1(t) + bx2(t)-->S-->y(t)=cos(3t)x3(t)=cos(3t)[ax1(t) + bx2(t)]=ay(t) + by(t)
- Therefore the function is linear.
- Let x2(t)=x1(t-T)-->S-->y(t)=cos(3t)x2(t)=cos(3t)x1(t-T)
- This is not equal to y(t-T), therefore the function is not Time Invariant.
- Assuming that x(t) is bound, the function y(t) is also bound since it is the multiple of two bound functions.
- The function is Memoryless, Causal, Linear, Stable.
C)
- y(t)=$ /int-/infty^2T x(/tau)d/tau $
- Let x3(t)=ax1(t) + bx2(t)-->S-->$ /int-/infty^2T x3(/tau)d/tau $=$ /int-/infty^2T ax1(/tau)d/tau $ + $ /int-/infty^2T bx2(/tau)d/tau $
- Therefore the function is linear.
