SIGNALS & SYSTEMS
1. The discrete-time equation y(n + 1) + 0.5n y(n) = 0.5x(n + 1) is

not attributable to a
a) memoryless system
b) time-varying system
c) linear system
d) causal system
Answer: (a)
Solution:
Since the output for each value of the independent variable at a
given time is not dependent on the input at the same time, hence
the system is having memory. Therefore, the system is not
attributable to a memoryless system.
NOTE: A system is said to be memoryless if its output for each
value of the independent variable at a given time is dependent
only on the input at the same time.
i.Memoryless System is also called static system.
ii.A System having memory is also called dynamic system.
2. A system defined by y[n] = ∑nk= −∞ x[K] is an example of
a) invertible system
b) memoryless system
c) non-invertible system
d) averaging system
Answer: (a)

1


Solution

Y[n] = ∑nK=−∞ X[K]

If a system is invertible, then an inverse system exists that, when

cascaded with the original system, yields an output w[n] equal

to the input x[n] to the first system

3. If the response of LTI continuous time system to unit step input

is �12 − 1 e−2t�, then impulse response of the system is
2

a) �12 − 1 e−2t�
2

b) e−2t

c) (1 − e−2t)

d) Constant

Answer: (b)

Solution:

Impulse response = d [Step response]
dt

= d �12 − 1 e−2t�
dt 2

= e−2t

4. The phase response of a pass band waveform at receiver is given
by φ(f) = −2πα (f − fC) − 2πβfC where fC is the center
frequency, and α and β are positive constants. The actual signal

propagation delay from the transmitter to receiver is

2


a) α−β
α+β

b) αβ
α+β

c) α

d) β

Answer: (c)

Solution:

tp(t) = −2θπ(ff)�f = = β

tg(t) = −1 dθd(ff)�f = = α

fc

5. Which one of the following is a Dirichlet condition?

a) ∫t∞1 |x(t)| < ∞

b) Signal x(t) must have a finite number of maxima and minima

in the expansion interval

c) X(t) can have a finite number of finite discontinuities in the

expansion interval
d) X2(t) must be absolutely summable

Answer: (b)

Solution:

Dirichlet’s condition states that:

i) Over any period signal x(t) must be absolutely integrable i.e.

∫T|x(t)|dt < ∞
ii) In any finite interval of time x(t) is of bounded variations i.e.

there are no more than a finite number of maxima and minima

during any single period of signal.

3


iii) In any finite interval of time there are only finite number of

discontinuities. Furthermore, each of these discontinuous is

finite.

6. The relation between input x(t) and output y(t) of a continuous-

time system is given by dy(t) + 3y(t) = x(t). What is the forced
dt

response of the system when x(t) = k (a constant)?

a) K

b) k/3

c) 3k

d) 0

Answer: (b)

7. If F(s) = L[f(t)] = (S + k + 4)is given by
1)(S2

a) K/4

b) Zero

c) Infinite

d) Undefined

Answer: (d)

Solution:

F(s) has poles at s = – 1, s = ± j2.

As all the poles are not in the open left half of the s plane the

final value theorem cannot be applied and tl⟶im∞ f(t) is undefined.

8. A solution for the differential equation Ẋ (t) + 2x(t) = δ(t) with
initial condition X (0–) = 0 is
a) e – 2t u(t)
b) e 2t u(t)
c) e– t u(t)
d) et u(t)

Answer: (a)
Solution:

X (t) + 2 X (t) = δ(t) ……(1)
X (0–) = 0 ……(2)

Taking Laplace transform on both sides of (1) with zero initial
condition (2),

(S + 2) X(s) = 1

X(s) = 1/(S + 2)
∴ X(t) = e−2t u(t)

Note that the impulse response of the 1st order system is asked in

the question.

9. Which one of the following transfer functions represents the

critically damped system?

a) H1(S) = S2 1
+ 4S + 4

b) H2(S) = S2 + 1 + 4
3S

c) H3(S) = S2 + 1 + 4
2S

d) H4(S) = S2 1 + 4
+S

Answer: (a)

5


Solution:

H1(s) = 1
S2+4S+4

= (S 1
+ 2)2

Since both roots are negative real and equal, it is a critically

damped system.

10. What is the Laplace transform of a delayed unit impulse

function δ(t – 1)?

a) 1

b) Zero

c) Exp (– s)

d) S

Answer: (c)

Solution:

x(t) = δ (t – 1)

X(s) = e– S .1

X(s) = exp (– S)

11. Consider a system with transfer function H(S) = 3S2 − 2 2. The
S2 + 3S +

step response of the system is given by

a) C(t) = 5e– t – e– t – 1

b) C(t) = 3δ(t) – 10e–2t + e–t

c) C(t) = 4e–t – e–2t – 1

d) C(t) = 2( 1 – e–2t)

Answer: (a)

6


Solution:

H(s) = 3S2−2 2 = C(s)
S2 + 3S + R(s)

Since the input signal is step so R(s) = 1
s

So C(s) = �3s2 − 2� 2)
s(s + 1)(s +

= −1 − (S 1 1) + (S 5 2)
S + +

Taking its inverse Laplace transform

C(t) = – 1 – e–t + 5 e–2t

12. A system is defined by its impulse response h(n) = 2n u (n – 2).

The system is

a) stable and causal

b) causal but not stable

c) stable but not causal

d) unstable and non-causal

Answer: (b)

Solution:

The impulse response of the system

h(n) = 2n u (n – 2) = 0, n ≤ 1

= 2n, n ≥ 2

The system is causal because h(n) = 0 for n < 0.

But the system is not stable because the output y(n) = h(n) is

unbounded due to the factor 2n for the bounded input,

X(n) = δ (n) = 1, n = 0

= 0, n ≠ 0

7


13. Consider the compound system shown in the below figure. Its
output is equal to input with a delay of two units.

If the transfer function of the first system is given by H1(Z) =

Z − 0.5 then the transfer function of the second system would be
Z − 0.8

a) H2(Z) = Z−2 − 0.2Z−3
1 − 0.4Z−1

b) H2(Z) = Z−2 − 0.8Z−3
1 − 0.5Z−1

c) H2(Z) = Z−2 + 0.2Z−3
1 + 0.4Z−1

d) H2(Z) = Z−2 + 0.8Z−3
1 + 0.5Z−1

Answer: (b)

Solution:

y(n) = x (n – 2)

y(z) = Z–2 X(z)

⇒ H(z) = H1(z)H2(z) = Y(Z) = Z−2
X(Z)

⇒ �ZZ − 00..85� H2(Z) = Z−2


⇒ H2(Z) = Z −1 + 0.8Z −2
z − 0.5

⇒ H2(Z) = Z −1 + 0.8Z −2
1 − 0.5Z −1

14. Decimation is the process of

a) Retaining sequence values of Xp [n] other than zeroes

b) Retaining all sequence values of Xp [n]

c) Dividing the sequence value by 10

8


d) Multiplying the sequence value by 10
Answer: (d)
Solution:
Decimation is the process of time scaling in discrete time
sequence when scaling factor is greater than ‘1’. i.e. α > 1
15. The pole - zero diagram of a causal and stable discrete-time
system is shown in the figure. The zero at the origin has
multiplicity 4. The impulse response of the system is h[n]. If h
[0] = 1, we can conclude.

a) h(n) is real for all n

b) h(n) is purely imaginary for all n

c) h(n) is real for only even n

d) h(n) is purely imaginary for odd n

Answer: (a)

Solution:

H(z) = Z4 1
Z4 + 4

H(z) = H (Z – 1)

h(n) = h (– n)

so h(n) is real for all ‘n’

16. A discrete-time signal x[n] = δ [n – 3] + 2δ [n – 5] has z-

transform X (Z). If Y(z) = X (–z) is the z-transform of another

signal y[n], then

a) Y[n] = x[n]

b) Y[n] = x [–n]

c) Y[n] = – x[n]

d) Y[n] = – x [–n]

Answer: (c)

Solution:

(a)nx(n) ⟷ X(Z/a)

a=–1
(−1)nx(n) ⟷X (–Z)

But x(n) = δ (n – 3) + 2δ (n – 5)
Y(n) = (−1)nx(n) = (−1)n [δ (n – 3) + 2δ (n – 5)]

Y(n) = – δ (n – 3) – 2δ (n – 5) = – x(n)

17. For a Z-transform X(Z)= z�2Z − 65� 31�.

Codes:

A BC D

a) 4 2 1 3

b) 1 3 4 2

c) 4 3 1 2

d) 1 2 4 3

Answer: (c)

Solution:

X(Z) = z�2Z − 56� = z z 1 + z z 1
�z − 21��z − 31� − 2 − 3

We know that, X(z) = z z a


⇒ x(n) = anu(n), |z| > |a|

Or x(n) = −anu(−n − 1), |z| < |a|

Then If |z| > 21,
x(n) = ��21�n + �31�n� u(n)

If 1 < |z| > 12,
3

Then x(n) = − �21�n u(−n − 1) + �31�nu(n)

If |z| < 13,

11


Then x(n) = − �21�n u(−n − 1) + �13�nu (– n – 1)
Then
If |z| < 1 & |z| < 1
3 2

x(n) = �12�n u(n) − �13�nu (– n – 1)

Property z-transform, X(n) ↔ X(z)
�ejω0�nx(n) ↔ X �ejzω0�

19. The difference equation for a system is given by Y (n + 2) + y

(n + 1) + 0.16y(n) = x (n + 1) + 0 32x(n) The transfer function

of the system is

a) Z + 0.32
Z2 + Z + 0.16

b) Z2 + 1 0.16
Z+

c) Z + 0.32
Z2 + 0.16

d) (Z − Z+ 0.32 0.16)
1)(Z2 +Z+

Answer: (a)

12


Solution:

Y (n + 2) + y(n + 1) + 0.16y(n) = x(n + 1) + 0.32 x(n)

Taking z-transform of both sides

(Z2 + z + 0.16) y(Z) = (Z + 0.32) X(Z)

Transfer function, H(Z) = (Z + 0.32)
(Z2 + Z + 0.06)

20. Let x(n) = �21�n, u(n) = X2(n), and Y = (ejω) be the Fourier

transform of y(n). Then y (ej0) is

a) 1/4

b) 2

c) 4

d) 4/3

Answer: (d)

Solution:
For the given, X(n) = �21�nu(n)

Y(n) = x2(n)= �12�2nu(n) = �14�nu(n)
If y(n) ⟶ Y(ejω),

Then according to the area property of DTFT
Y�ejθ� = ∑n∞=−∞ y(n) = ∑n∞=0 �41�n

RH side above is the geometric series of infinite number of

terms.

21. Consider the system shown in the Fig below. The transfer
function Y(z)/X(z) of the system is

a) 1 + aZ−1
1 + bZ−1

b) 1 + bZ−1
1 + aZ−1

c) 1 + aZ−1
1 − bZ−1

d) 1 − bZ−1
1 + aZ−1

Answer: (a)

Solution:

Let X(K) ⟶X(Z), y(k) ⟶ Y(z)

The system block diagram is redrawn in write the following

relations:

E(Z) = X(Z) – bZ – 1 E(Z),

Y(Z) = E(Z) + aZ – 1 E(Z),

or E(Z) = (1 + 1 X(Z)
bZ−1)

14


or Y(Z) = (1 + aZ−1)E(z)

Y(z) = (1 + aZ−1) (1 + 1 X(z),
bZ−1)

∴ Transfer function = Y(Z) = �1 + aZ−1�
X(Z) (1 + bZ−1)

The answer can also be obtained probably quickly by using

Manson’s gain formula Gains of the two existing forward paths:

M1 = 1 and M2 = a Z–1
Gain of the (only one existing) individual loop = –b z–1

Δ = 1− ∑ Individual loop gains

= 1 + b Z–1 and Δ1 = 1, Δ2 = 1

∴ Y(Z) = M = M1∆1 + M2∆2 = 1 + az−1
X(Z) ∆ 1 + bz−1

22. A half duty cycle rectangular clock output is sampled at 5

times its rate. Spectrum of the sampled clock will be having

mirror image in negative frequency domain of a

a) Sampled sinc pulse

b) Periodic sinc pulse

c) Periodic sampled sinc pulse

d) None of the above

Answer: (c)

Solution:

The sampled signal will be a discrete time periodic signal thus

the Fourier transform will be a discrete frequency periodic

signal and the rectangular function has sinc function as its

transform hence option (c) is correct.

a) 2 sin α
2

b) 2 cos α
2

c) sin2α2 − 1

d) cos2α2 − 1

Answer: (b)

Solution:

Z = 1 + cos α + i sin α

|z| = �(1 + cos α)2 + sin2α

= √1 + 2 cos α + cos2α + sin2α

= �2(1 + cos α)

= �2 × 2cos2 �α2�
= 2 cos �α2�
24. The amplitude spectrum of a Gaussian pulse is
a) uniform
b) a sine functions
c) Gaussian
d) an impulse function
Answer: (c)
Solution:
A normalized gaussian pulse is defined as
X(t) = e−πt2 for all ‘t’, with X(0) = 1

16


A = Area under X(t) = ∫−∞∞ X(t)dt = 1.
X(t) ⟶ X(f) = e−πf2

X(f) is also a Gaussian pulse in frequency domain having the
same expression as X(t) in time-domain. Even if the Gaussian
pulse is not normalized i.e., X(0) ≠ 1 and A ≠ 1, its its fourier
Transform is also a Gaussian of the form B e−Cπf2, where B and
C are constants.

d) None of these
Answer: (c)

17


Solution:

27. The impulse response of a linear time invariant system is h(n)
= {1, 2, 1, –1}. The response for the input Signal x(n) = {1, 2, 3,
1}is
a) {1, 8, 4, 8, 3, – 1, 2}
b) {1, 4, 8, 3, 8, – 2, – 2}
c) {1, 4, 8, 8, 3, – 2, – 1}
d) {1, 8, 3, 8, 8, 4, –1}
Answer: (c)
Solution:
X(n) = {1, 2, 3, 1}
h(n) = {1, 2, 1, –1]

18


The sum of each diagonal element will give the response of the

input.

X(n) * h(n) = {1, 4, 8, 8, 3, – 2, – 1}.

28. Consider the sequence x[n] = [– 4 – j5, l + j2, 4) The conjugate

anti - symmetric part of the sequence is

a) [– 4 – j 2.5 j2 4 – j 2.5]

b) [ – j 2.5 1 j 2.5]

c) [–j 5 j2 0]

d) [– 4 1 4]

Answer: (a)

Solution:

A complex sequence x(n) is conjugate symmetric (even), if X(n)

= x* (– n).

A complex sequence x(n) is conjugate anti symmetric (odd), if

X(n) = – x* (– n).

If a complex sequence x(n) is neither conjugate even nor

conjugate odd, x(n) can be decomposed into even conjugate part

Xc(n) and odd conjugate part X0(n).

19


Xc(n) = x(n)+x∗(−n)
2

Xc(n) = x(n)−x∗(−n)
2

For the given sequence x(n) = [– 4 – j5, 1 + j2,4]

X*(n) = [– 4 – j5 1 + j2 4]

X*(– n) = [ 4 1 + j2 – 4 – j5]

∴ X0(n) = �−28 − j5 , j4 , 8 − j25�
2 2 2

∴X0(n) = [– 4 – j2.5 j2 4 – j2.5]
29. There is a function f(x), such that f(0) = 1 and f ′ (0) = – 1 is

positive for all values of x, then

b) – 1< f ′′ (x) < 0 for all x
c) – 2 < f ′′ (x) < –1 for all x

d) None of these

Answer: (d)

Solution:

f(x) = e−x ⇒ f (0) = e –0 = 1

f ′(x) = −e−x ⇒ f ′ (0) = –e –0 = –1

f(x) = e – x is + ve for ∀ x

f ′′(x) = e – x is + ve for ∀ x

b) C1 �− 34�n−1+C2 �43�n−1

20


c) C1 �43�n
d) C1 �− 34�n

Answer: (a)

Solution:

Taking z-transform of given difference equation

Y(z) – 9 Z−2Y(z) = Z−1Y(z)
16

⇒ y(z) = Z−1 = z
9 − 196�
1 − 16 Z−2 �Z2

So for homogeneous solution or complementary solution.

Z2 − 9 = 0
16

⇒ Z = ± 3
4

So homogenous solution is given as C1 �43�n + C2 �− 43�n
