Signals & Systems Questions and Answers – Convolution : Impulse Response Representation for LTI Systems – 1

This set of Signals & Systems Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Convolution : Impulse Response Representation for LTI Systems – 1”.

1. Impulse response is the output of ______ system due to impulse input applied at time=0?
a) Linear
b) Time varying
c) Time invariant
d) Linear and time invariant
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: Impulse response is the output of LTI system due to impulse input applied at time = 0 or n=0. Behaviour of an LTI system is characterised by the impulse response.

2. Which of the following is correct regarding to impulse signal?
a) x[n]δ[n] = x[0]δ[n]
b) x[n]δ[n] = δ[n]
c) x[n]δ[n] = x[n]
d) x[n]δ[n] = x[0]
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: When the input x[n] is multiplied with an impulse signal, the result will be impulse signal with magnitude of x[n] at that time.

3. Weighted superposition of time-shifted impulse responses is termed as _______ for discrete-time signals.
a) Convolution integral
b) Convolution multiple
c) Convolution sum
d) Convolution
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: Weighted superposition of time-shifted impulse responses is called convolution sum for discrete-time signals and convolution integral for continuous-time signals.

4. Which of the following is a correct expression for Impulse response?
a) x[n] = \(∑_{k=-∞}^∞\) x[k]δ[n-k]
b) x[n] = \(∑_{k=-∞}^∞\) x[k]δ[n]
c) x[n] = \(∑_{k=-∞}^∞\) x[k]δ[k]
d) x[n] = \(∑_{k=-∞}^∞\) x[k]δ[nk]
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: X [n] is represented as the weighted sum of time shifted impulses and concisely written as x[n] = ∑k=-∞ x[k]δ[n-k]..

5. Determine the output of a LTI system, Find the output of a LTI system
a) The output of a LTI system - option a
b) The output of a LTI system - option b
c) The output of a LTI system - option c
d) The output of a LTI system - option d
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: X [n] is written as x[n]=δ[n]+4δ[n-1]-5δ[n-2] and y[n]=h[n]+4h[n-1]-5h[n-2]. By substituting the values for n = ….-2,-1, 0, 1, 2…. And corresponding h [n] we get y [n].

a) The output of LTI system - option a
b) The output of LTI system - option b
c) The output of LTI system - option c
d) The output of LTI system - option d
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: x[n]=5δ[n]+6δ[n-1] andy[n]=5h[n]+6h[n-1]. By substituting the values for n = ….-2,-1, 0, 1, 2…. And corresponding h[n] we get the output sequence y[n].

7. Find the convolution sum of sequences x1[n] = (1, 2, 3) and x2[n] = (2, 1, 4).
a) {2, 5, 12, 11, 12}
b) {2, 12, 5, 11, 12}
c) {2, 11, 5, 12, 12}
d) {-2, 5,-12, 11, 12}
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: x1[n] = δ(n)+2δ(n-1)+3δ(n-2) and x2[n] = 2δ(n)+δ(n-1)+4δ(n-2)
Y[n] = x1[n]*x2[n] by performing convolution operation on x1[n] and x2[n] we get the sequence as {2, 5, 12, 11, 12}.
