The material to be covered in this lecture is

as follows:

Dr. Ali Muqaibel

Introduction to the z-transform

Definition of the z-transform

Derivation of the z-transform

Region of convergence for the transform

Examples.

After finishing this lecture you should be

able to:

Dr. Ali Muqaibel

Find the z-transform for a given signal utilizing the z-

transform definition

Calculate the region of convergence for the transform

Derivation of the z -Transform

Dr. Ali Muqaibel

The z-transform is the basic tool for the analysis and synthesisof discrete-time systems.

The z-transform is defined as follows:

The coefficient

denote the sample value and

denotes that the sample occurs sample periods afterthe 0 reference. Note that the lower limit of the summation can start from

zero if the signal is causal (Unilateral z-transform)

Rather than starting form the given definition for the z-transform, we may start from the continuous-time functionand derive the z-transform. This is done in the next slide.

Derivation of the z -transform

Dr. Ali Muqaibel

The sampled signal may be written as

Since

0for all t except

at , can be replaced by. And Assuming 0 for 0. Then,

Taking Laplace transform yields Rearranging

By sifting property of the delta

Region of Convergence (ROC) is converged for 0 (left-half of s-plane). This corresponds

to 1. This is the region inside the unit circle. is NOT converged for 0 (right-half of s-plane). This

corresponds to 1 which is the region outside the unit circle

The mapping of the Laplace variable into the z-plane through is illustrated in the figure.

The Z-Transform in Summary

Dr. Ali Muqaibel

The coefficient denotes the sampled value The square bracket is used to indicate discrete times.

denotes that the sample occurs

sample periods after

the 0 reference. is simply the -second time shift The parameter is simply shorthand notation for the Laplace

time shift operator

For instance, 30 denotes a sample, having value 30, whichoccurs 40 sample periods after the t=0 reference

Matlab has special tools for z-transform: ztrans, iztrans , pretty

Example 3 with Poles and Zeros

Dr. Ali Muqaibel

Determine the z-transform of the signal

0.5 Depict the ROC and the locations of poles and zeros of X ( z) in the z-plane

Solution:

Substituting is the definition of the z-transform

∑ 0.5 ∑ 0.5 ∑ .

This is a geometric series of infinite length in the ratio 0.5/ z; the sumconverges, provided that . 1 or 0.5. Hence the z-transform is
