If a continuous time signal has no frequency components above f h, then it can be specified by a discrete time signal with a sampling frequency. In this chapter, we study the convolution concept in the time domain. In this post we will see an example of the case of continuous convolution and an example of the analog case or discrete convolution. Discrete signals or functions are often sequences of numbers that are pretty easy to write in a table, but are not easy to write as a function. Continuous time signals, continuous time systems, fourier analysis in continuous time domain, laplace transform, system analysis in s domain, discrete time sigmals, discrete time systems, z. In developing convolution for continuous time, the procedure is much the same as in discrete time although in the continuoustime case the signal is represented first as a linear combination of narrow rectangles basically a staircase approximation to the time function.
The convolution is of interest in discrete time signal processing because of its connection with linear, time invariant lters. But the examples will, by necessity, use discrete time sequences.

It is important to note that convolution in continuoustime systems cannot be exactly replicated in a discretetime system. Convolving a discrete time sequence with a continuoustime. The signal correlation operation can be performed either with one signal autocorrelation or between two different signals crosscorrelation. In it, k is a dummy variable, which disappears when the summation is evaluated. Let us see how the basic signals can be represented in discrete time domai.

You probably have seen these concepts in undergraduate courses, where you dealt mostlywithone byone signals, xtand ht. Students can often evaluate the convolution integral continuous time case, convolution sum discrete time case, or perform graphical convolution but may not have a good grasp of what is happening.
This is also true for functions in l 1, under the discrete convolution, or more generally for the convolution on any group. Convolution is one of the primary concepts of linear system theory. The first is the delta function, symbolized by the greek letter delta, n. Much more can be said, much more information can be extracted from a signal in the transform frequency domain. For this introduce the unit step function, and the definition of the convolution formulation.
