A program on a list of numbers
- Every filter, every spectrum and every speedup in this course is a program running on a list of numbers.
- One list decides everything that program does: the impulse response.
Convolution
- A linear time-invariant system is fully described by its impulse response 单位脉冲响应 $h[n]$.
- The output is the convolution 卷积 $y[n] = \sum_{k} h[k]\,x[n-k]$: slide the taps along the input, multiply and add.
h = [1, 2, 1] and x = [1, 1]. What is y?

y[0] = 1; y[1] = 2 + 1 = 3; y[2] = 1 + 2 = 3; y[3] = 1. The output is len(h) + len(x) − 1 = 4 samples long.
Causal and stable
- Causality 因果性: $h[n] = 0$ for $n < 0$, so no output comes before its input.
- BIBO stability BIBO 稳定: $\sum |h[n]|$ is finite, so every bounded input gives a bounded output.
A system with h[n] = 1.1ⁿ for n ≥ 0 is BIBO stable.

The terms grow, so their sum diverges. A step input would drive the output without limit.
Match each property to its test.

All three are read straight off the impulse response.
Frequency response
- Feed in $e^{j\omega n}$ and the same exponential comes out, multiplied by $H(e^{j\omega}) = \sum h[n]e^{-j\omega n}$.
- That multiplier is the frequency response 频率响应. At $\omega = 0$ it is the tap sum, the DC gain.
What is the DC gain of h = [0.25, 0.5, 0.25]?

The tap sum is 1, so a constant input passes unchanged.
Worked example: the sliding table
- $h = [1, 2, 1]$ on a step: $y = 1, 3, 4, 4, \ldots$ It settles at the tap sum, 4, after three samples.
- A pulse $[1, 1, 1]$ gives $1, 3, 4, 3, 1$.
h = [1, 3, 1] filters a unit step. What value does the output settle at?

A step through any FIR settles at the tap sum, 1 + 3 + 1 = 5, after three samples.
Worked example: the recursive averager
- $y[n] = \dfrac{y[n-1] + x[n]}{2}$ has $h[n] = 0.5^{n+1}$, which never ends. Its step response is $0.5, 0.75, 0.875, 0.9375, \ldots = 1 - 2^{-(n+1)}$.
- Its single pole is at $z = 0.5$, inside the unit circle, so it is stable. It approaches 1 but never arrives.
The averager y[n] = (y[n−1] + x[n])/2 starts at rest. What is its step response at n = 4? Give 5 decimal places.

$1 - 2^{-5} = 0.96875$: it halves the remaining distance each step.
Three common slips
- Inconsistent flipping. In a hand table, flip one signal and keep to it.
- "$\sum h$ is the gain." It is the gain at DC only.
- Expecting a recursive filter to settle. It gets closer each step, but never exactly arrives.
Which recursive filter is stable?

The pole sits at the feedback coefficient. Only 0.8 is inside the unit circle; a coefficient of 1 is an accumulator, which is only marginal.
Recap
- Output = input convolved with $h[n]$.
- Causal: $h[n] = 0$ for $n < 0$. Stable: $\sum |h| < \infty$, or poles inside the unit circle.
- $H(e^{j\omega})$ is the frequency response; the tap sum is the DC gain.
