Assignment 1: Basic Signal Generation

Due Date: October 2 2010 before 11:59PM

Introduccin:
This work introduces students to the basics of signal processing. Each student should do
the example and do the work individually.
Este documento debe ser entregado con las siguientes modificaciones e indicaciones:
1. Send copy of the document via email.
2. Write name, student ID number and date of submission in first page.
3. Modify each program as indicated.
4. Substitute the graphics with the ones you generated using the modified programs.
5. Show mathematical development (if any) of the results you have presented.

Problem No. P1: Unitary impulse sequence

Modify the following program in MATLAB for generating the signal, [n], n Z 32 ,
which is an unit impulse and substitute the following plot with the plot you obtained from
the modified program. Note that the plot should start from index 0 and terminate in index
31.
% Program P1
% Generation of a Unit Sample Sequence
clf;
% Generate a vector from -10 to 20
n = -10:20;
% Generate the unit sample sequence
u = [zeros(1,10) 1 zeros(1,20)];
% Plot the unit sample sequence
stem(n,u);

Problem No. P2: Complex exponential sequence

2

Modify the following program to plot the signal x[ n] A n4 e j 32 (2) n , n Z , which is the
32
product of two signals: one signal is complex periodic, with fundamental period of 8 ,
atenuated by a real exponential signal, with variable parameter 1 A 4 . Each student
should select a unique value of 1 A 4 and substitute the following plot with the plot
2

obtained from the modified program. Note that the signal x[n] A n4 e j 32 (2) n , n Z is
32
complex and plot its real and imaginary part.
% Program P2

c = -(1/12)+(pi/6)*i;

n = 0:40;
x = K*exp(c*n);

Problem No. P3: Discrete real exponential sequence

2

Modify the following program to plot the signal x[n] e 1 36 (0.8) n , n Z , which is real
36
and exponential. Note that the signal decays over time.
% Program P3

clf;
n = 0:35; a = 1.2; K = 0.2;
x = exp(-(2*pi/36)*0.8*n);

Problem No. P4: Sinusoidal discrete sequence

Modify the following program to plot the signal x[n] 1.5cos 2 ( 322 )n , n Z 32 , which
is a sinuoid, with fundamental period 16, and substitute the following plot with the plot
obtained from the modified program. The resultant plot should have 32 values only,
indexed uniformly, in unit increments in the x-axis and has 0 as the index of origin.
% Program P4
% Generation of a sinusoidal sequence
n = 0:40;
f = 0.1;
phase = 0;
A = 1.5;
arg = 2*pi*f*n - phase;
x = A*cos(arg);
