August 2017




Problem 1. [50 pts]
Consider the following 2D system with input $ x(m,n) $ and output $ y(m,n) $ for $ \lambda>0 $.
$ y(m,n)=x(m,n)+\lambda(x(m,n)-\dfrac{1}{9}\sum_{k=-1}^{1} \sum_{l=-1}^{1} x(m-k,n-l)) $.
a) Is this a linear system? Is this a space invariant system?
b) Calculate and sketch thw psf, $ h[n] $, for $ \lambda=0.5 $.
c) Is this a separable system?
d) Calculate the frequency response, $ H(e^{j\mu},e^{jv}) $. (Express your esult in simplified from.)
e) Describe what ths filter does and how the output changes as $ \lambda $ increases.
