This document discusses various operations that can be performed on discrete-time signals, including time-shifting, time-scaling, time-reversal, and examples of applying these operations. Time-shifting a discrete signal x(n) by m samples results in the signal y(n)=x(n-m). Time-scaling by a factor of N results in decimation as y(n)=x(Nn) if N>1 or interpolation if y(n)=x(n/N). Time-reversal is represented as y(n)=x(-n). Examples demonstrate applying these operations to signals and obtaining the resulting signals.

Useful Signal Operation-Discrete time Signals


Time-shifting: A discrete time signal x(n) is time shifted by m is defined by,

y(n)  x(n  m)
Here, m must be positive or negative integer. If m is positive then x(n)
Shifts right by m samples and if it is negative then it shifts left by m samples

Example: Consider, x(n)=1, n=1,2


=-1, n=-1,-2
= 0 , n=0, |n|>2
y(n)
Compute, y(n)=x(n+3)
x(n)

Time-scaling: Two cases: 1. Decimation/ downsampling

y(n)  x( Nn)
Here, N >1 must be positive integer.

Example: Consider, x(n)=n, n=1,2


=-n, n=-1,-2
= 0 , n=0, |n|>2
Compute, y(n)=x(2n)
