Types of Digital Signals Explained

The document outlines different types of signals in digital signal processing, categorizing them into even, odd, periodic, aperiodic, energy, power, deterministic, and random signals. Even signals are symmetric around the Y-axis, while odd signals are symmetric around the origin. Periodic signals repeat after a fixed period, whereas aperiodic signals do not, and energy signals have finite energy with zero average power, while power signals have finite power and infinite energy.

SIGNALS TYPES

EVEN VS. ODD


SIGNALS
DIGITAL SIGNALS:
In Digital Signal Processing the signal is determines whether :
Even Signal
Odd Signal
Neither
that is based on its symmetry about the vertical axis
(time origin)
EVEN SIGNAL
A signal is said to be an Even signal it if satisfies :
x(t) = x(-t)

The signal is symmetric around Y-axis

as x(t) = cos (t)

If you fold the signal around t = 0 , both halves match exactly


ODD SIGNAL
A signal is said to be an Odd signal it if satisfies :
x(t) = - x(-t)

The signal is symmetric around Origin point

as x(t) = sin (t)

If you fold the signal around t = 0 , the lest side is the negative
mirror of the right side
PERIODIC VS. APERIODIC
SIGNALS
PERIODIC SIGNAL
Repeats exactly after a fixed period T.
Condition:
x(t + T) = x(t) (continuous time).

x[n + N] = x[n] (discrete time).


PERIODIC SIGNALS
APERIODIC SIGNAL
Does not repeat for any finite T or N.
Signal that does not repeat itself over a specific time interval.

These signals are often encountered in real-world situations, such


as:
speech
noise
APERIODIC SIGNALS
ENERGY VS. POWER
SIGNALS
DIGITAL SIGNALS:
In Digital Signal Processing the signal is determines whether :
Energy Signal
Power Signal
Neither
In signal processing, signals are often classified based on
their energy and power characteristics.

This classification helps in understanding the nature and


behavior of different types of signals.
ENERGY SIGNAL
A signal is said to be an Energy Signal if it has finite energy and
zero average power.
P=0
The energy (E) of a continuous-time signal x(t) is mathematically
expressed as:

0<E<∞
POWER SIGNAL
A signal is said to be an Power Signal if it has finite power and
infinite energy.
E=∞
The average power (P) of a continuous-time signal x(t) is
mathematically expressed as:

0<P<∞
DETERMINISTIC
VS.
RANDOM STOCHASTIC
SIGNALS
DETERMINISTIC SIGNAL
Follows a predictable pattern over time.
Future values are fully determined by a known
rule or model.
Can be accurately modeled and analyzed with
mathematical techniques.
Examples:
sine/cosine waves
square/triangle waves
RANDOM (STOCHASTIC) SIGNAL
Exhibits unpredictable behavior over time.
Exact future values cannot be predicted from past
values
Described by statistics (mean, variance, PDFs,
autocorrelation) rather than exact formulas.
Cannot be accurately modeled with mathematical
techniques.
Examples:
thermal/electronic noise, stock price increments
