Exercise · ZW-LINEAR-TIME-INVARIANT-SYSTEMS-006 · ★★☆ Intermediate

If \(h[n]=\delta[n]+\delta[n-2]\) and \(x[n]=\delta[n-1]\), what is \(y[n]\)?

Choose one option.

Show answer
  • A. \(\delta[n-1]+\delta[n-3]\)

Explanation

Convolving a shifted impulse with \(h[n]\) shifts \(h[n]\) by one sample, giving \(\delta[n-1]+\delta[n-3]\). The other options omit the shift or double terms.

Review the concept: Linear time-invariant systems

A linear time-invariant (LTI) system is a system that satisfies superposition and whose behavior does not change when the input is shifted. It is determined by its impulse response \(h[n]\).

\[y[n]=\sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty} x[k]\,h[n-k]\]
