The z-Transform: Introduction
•
Why z-Transform?
1. Many of signals (such as x(n)=u(n), x(n) = (0.5)nu(n), x(n) = sin(nω) etc. ) do not have a DTFT.
2. Advantages like Fourier transform provided:

•
•
Solution process reduces to a simple algebraic procedures
The temporal domain sequence output y(n) = x(n)*h(n) can
be represent as Y(z)= X(z)H(z)
Properties of systems can easily be studied and
characterized in z – domain (such as stability..)

Definition of the z-Transform
1. Definition:The z-transform of a discrete-time signal x(n) is defined by
where z = rejw is a complex variable. The values of z for which the
sum converges define a region in the z-plane referred to as the
region of convergence (ROC).
2. Notationally, if x(n) has a z-transform X(z), we write
3. The z-transform may be viewed as the DTFT or an exponentially
weighted sequence. Specifically, note that with z = rejw, X(z) can be
looked as the DTFT of the sequence r--nx(n) and ROC is determined
by the range of values of r of the following right inequation.
ROC & z-plane
• Complex z-plane
z = Re(z)+jIm(z) = rejw
• Zeros and poles of X(z)
Many signals have z-transforms that are
rational function of z:
Factorizing it will give:
The roots of the numerator polynomial, βk,are
referred to as the zeros (o) and αk are referred
to as poles (x). ROC of X(z) will not contain
poles.
ROC properties
• ROC is an annulus or disc in the z-plane centred at the
origin. i.e.
• A finite-length sequence has a z-transform with a region
of convergence that includes the entire z-plane except,
possibly, z = 0 and z = . The point z = will be included if
x(n) = 0 for n < 0, and the point z = 0 will be included if x(n) = 0
for n > 0.
• A right-sided sequence has a z-transform with a region
of convergence that is the exterior of a circle:
ROC: |z|>α
• A left-sided sequence has a z-transform with a region of
convergence that is the interior of a circle:
ROC: |z|<β
• The Fourier Transform of x(n) converges absolutely if
and only if ROC of z-transform includes the unit circle

The z-transform of the unit-sample response is often referred to as
the system function.

equal to zero for n<0, the initial value, x(0),
