Systems and Classification of
Systems: Basic properties
• A system is a mathematical model of a process that relates the input
(or excitation) signal to the output (response) signal.
• Let 𝑥 and 𝑦 be the input and output signals of a system in figure (a)
below. The system is viewed as a transformation of 𝑥 into 𝑦. This
transformation is represented by the mathematical notation:
𝑦 = 𝑇𝑥
• Where T is the operator representing some well-defined rule by which
𝑥 is transformed into 𝑦.

System with Memory and without
Memory
• A system is said to be memoryless if the output at any time
depends on only the input at the same time. Example
𝑦 𝑛 = 2𝑥 𝑛 − 𝑥 2 [𝑛]
• Memoryless systems are also called static systems.
• A system is said to possess memory if its output signal
depends on past of future values of the input signal. The
temporal extent of the past or future values on which the
output depends defines how far the memory of the system
extends into the past or future. Example. a delay:
𝑦 𝑛 = 𝑥[𝑛 − 1]
At 𝑦 0 = 𝑥[−1], Output depends on previous value of input. Thus
memory is required. 3
A system with memory is also called a dynamic system.
Examples:
…−3 −2 −1 012 3
Past Present Future
For t=0,
𝑦 𝑡 = 𝑥 𝑡 = 𝑦 0 = 𝑥(0) - Present
𝑦 𝑡 = 𝑥 𝑡 − 2 = 𝑦 0 = 𝑥 −2 - Past
𝑦 𝑡 = 𝑥 𝑡 + 4 = 𝑦 0 = 𝑥 4 - Future
Problems: Determine if the system has memory or is memoryless.
1. 𝑦 𝑛 = 𝑥 𝑛 + 𝑥 𝑛 + 1
2. 𝑦 𝑡 = 𝑥 2 𝑡 + 𝑥(𝑡)
𝑥 2 [𝑛]
3. 𝑦 𝑛 = 𝑒
4. 𝑦 𝑛 = log[𝑥 𝑛 ]
5. 𝑦 𝑡 = 𝑥 𝑡 𝑥(𝑡 − 1) 4
Causal and Noncausal Systems.

𝑦 𝑛 = (𝑥 𝑛 + 1 + 𝑥 𝑛 + 𝑥 𝑛 − 1 )

The output depends on a future value of the input signal. 5

Stable Systems: bounded-input/
bounded-output (BIBO)
A system is bounded-input/bounded-output (BIBO) stable if
for any bounded input x defined by
𝑥 ≤ 𝑘1
1. 𝑦 𝑡 = 𝑥 𝑡 + 2
First provide the bounded input, if the system produces
a bounded output, then it is stable.
Bounded input –DC input, x(t) = 4.
𝑦 𝑡 =4+2=6
Output is bonded. Thus system is stable.
Try
1. 𝑦 𝑡 = 𝑡𝑥 𝑡
2. 𝑦 𝑡 = sin(𝑡)𝑥 𝑡

Time-Invariant and Time-varying
Systems
• A system is called time-invariant if a time shift (delay
or advance) in the input signal causes the same time
shift in the output signal.
𝑇{𝑥 𝑡 − 𝜏 } = 𝑦 𝑡 − 𝜏

Example
2. 𝑦 𝑡 = 2 + 𝑥 𝑡
Step one: 𝑦 𝑡 = 2 + 𝑥 𝑡 − 𝑡0
Step two: 𝑥 𝑡 − 𝑡0 = 2 + 𝑥 𝑡 − 𝑡0
The outputs are the same. System is time-invariant. 15
