The Z-Transform

The z-transform converts a discrete-time signal into a complex frequency domain representation.

  • $ X(z) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty (x[n]z^{-n}) $

Some Properties:

Linearity:

  • $ ax1[n]+bx2[n] = aX1(z)+bX2(z) $

Time-Shifting:

  • $ x[n-k] = z^{-k}X(z) $

Scaling in Z domain:

  • $ a^{n}Y(z) = X(a^{-1}Z) $

Time Reversal:

  • $ x[-n] = X(z^{-1}) $

Convolution:

  • x1[n]* x2[n] = X1(z)X2(z)


Inverse Z-Transform

Returns a complex variable representation back into a discrete-time signal.

  • $ x[n] = Z^{-1}[X(z)] = \int X(z)z^{n-1}\ $

in this case the integral is around a counter-clockwise clothed path encircling the origin of the complex plane and entirely inside the R.O.C.
