2 Question 3.7 from the textbook


The input to a causal LTI system is

x[n] = u[−n − 1] + (1/2)n u[n]. (1)

The z-transform of the output of the system is

− 12 z −1
Y (z) = 1 −1 . (2)
(1 − 2z )(1 + z −1 )

(c) Find y[n].

4 Made-up questions not from the textbook


Answer the following questions:
(a) If the ROC of X(z) includes infinity, then x[n] must be a right-sided infinite duration sequence. Is
the statement true or false?
(b) The ROC of X(z) is empty. Specify one scenario when this can happen.
(c) A system is stable and causal, then it cannot have have a zero outside the unit circle. Is the
statement true or false?
(d) The z-transform of a system with impulse response h[n] is H(z). It is possible that this system is
unstable, but a system with impulse response (z0 )n h[n] is stable?
(e) The z-transform of a system with impulse response h[n] is H(z). It is possible that this system is
not causal, but a system with impulse response (z0 )n h[n] is causal?

5 Question 5.17 from the textbook

z −1 (1 − 13 z −1 )
H(z) = . (4)

Can this system be a minimum phase system? Also, find the inverse system and specify its ROC.

7 Question 5.29 from the textbook

Figure 1: An LTI system with its inverse system.

Consider the cascade of an LTI system with its inverse system. The impulse response of the first system
is h[n] = δ[n] + 2δ[n − 1].
• Determine the impulse response hi [n] of a stable inverse system for h[n]. Is the inverse system
causal?
• Now consider the more general case where h[n] = δ[n] + αδ[n − 1] Under what conditions on α will
there exist an inverse system that is both stable and causal?

8 Question 5.30 from the textbook


(a) An LTI discrete-time system consisting of the cascade connection of two minimum-phase systems
is also minimum-phase. Is the statement true or false?
(b) An LTI discrete-time system consisting of the parallel connection of two minimum-phase systems
is also minimum-phase. Is the statement true or false?

9 Questions 5.16, 5.35 and 5.23 from the textbook

Figure 2: Phase plot.

(a) Suppose the phase of an LTI system


arg[H(ejω )] = −αω (6)
for |ω| < π and α is a positive integer. Is the impulse response h[n] of this system definitely a
causal sequence?
(b) Suppose that a discrete-time filter has group delay τ (ω). Does the condition τ (ω) > 0 for |ω| < π
imply that the filter is necessarily causal?
(c) If the filter is causal, then its group delay must be non-negative at all frequencies in the range
|ω| < π.
(d) If the group delay of the filter is a positive constant integer for |ω| < π, then the filter must be a
simple integer delay.
