If \(x[n]=u[n]\) and \(h[n]=\delta[n]-\delta[n-1]\), what is \(y[n]\)?
Choose one option.
Show answer
- C. \(\delta[n]\)
Explanation
Since \(y[n]=x[n]-x[n-1]\), with \(x[n]=u[n]\) we get \(u[n]-u[n-1]=\delta[n]\). The other options do not apply the difference of shifts.
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 \(h[n]\).
\[y[n]=\sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty} x[k]\,h[n-k]\]
