Experiment No. 4: Z-Transform and Inverse Z-Transform

This document describes an experiment involving the z-transform and inverse z-transform. The objective is to manipulate these transforms practically using MATLAB. The theory section explains that the z-transform maps a discrete signal from the time domain to the complex or frequency domain, and has advantages like preserving linearity and superposition. The procedure section provides MATLAB code examples for calculating z-transforms and inverse z-transforms of various functions, as well as determining poles and partial fraction expansions. Tasks are given to practice these techniques.

Z-TRANSFORM AND INVERSE Z-TRANSFORM

OBJECTIVE
 To manipulate the Z-transform and Inverse Z-transform practically using MATLAB.

EQUIPMENT
 Computer System & MATLAB software Installed on it

THEORY
As the Fourier transform forms the basis of signal analysis, the z-transform forms the basis of
system analysis. If x[n] is a discrete signal, its z-transform X(z) is given by:
The z-transform maps a signal in the time domain to a power series in the complex
(Frequency) domain: x[n] → X(z).
There are many advantages to working with z-transformed signals:
Linearity and superposition are preserved
 x[n − k] → z−kX(z)
 x[− n] → X(1/z)
 anx[n] → X(z/a)
 x[n] ∗ y[n] → X(z)Y (z)
The overall result is that the algebra of system analysis becomes greatly simplified in the z domain.
The only tradeoff is the necessity of taking an inverse transform to obtain time domain responses.
Since the response y[n] of an LTI system to input x[n] is given by the convolution x[n] ∗ h[n],
where h[n] is the impulse response, we have
The ratio H(z) = Y (z)/X(z) defines the impulse response (and so the system response), and is
called the transfer function of the system

PROCEDURE
Polynomials and Partial Fraction Expansion
Partial fraction expansion of polynomials and roots of the polynomials are important while
determining the z-transform and its inverse. MATLAB provides with the following functions:
a) residue
b) poly
See help for these functions in MATLAB and do the following example.
b = 1;
a = poly ([0.8, 0.8, -0.8])
[r,p,k] = residuez(b,a)
[b,a] = residuez(r,p,k)

The first call to residue with 2 arguments performs partial fraction expansion of the polynomial
given by x and y. The second call with 3 arguments reverses the operation. The following
example shows how to calculate magnitude and phases of the complex roots.

b = [1,0.4*sqrt(2)]
a=[1,-0.8*sqrt(2),0.64]
[R,p,C] = residuez(b,a)
Mp=abs(p') % pole magnitudes
Ap=angle(p')/pi % pole angles in pi units

Z-Transform and MATLAB

MATLAB can take z-transform of a polynomial for you. For this you need to define the
Independent variable ‘n’ as a symbol in MA TLAB. See help for ‘syms’ for defining symbols.
