Discrete time system classifications

Systems can be classifieds into one of the following categories

1. Memoryless Systems. A system is classified into memoryless system if the output at every value of depends only on the input of at the same value of . An example of a memoryless system is the squarer system described by

22


2. Linear systems. Any system satisfies the superposition and the scaling property is classifieds as a linear system. As an example of a linear system is the accumulator system described by

3. Time-invariant system is a system for which a time shift or delay of the input sequence causes a corresponding shift in the output sequence
