AFC – Chapter 1. Basic concepts.

Learning Purposes

1. Define the concept of signal and the ways of representing it.
2. Classify the signals according to time, according to the value of the signal, according to its determinism, and according to its periodicity.
3. Define the concept of system and how to represent it abstractly as an operator.
4. Classify systems according to the number of input and output signals, time, according to the value of the signals, according to its determinism, according to its spatial distribution, according to its dynamism, its causality, according to its variability over time, according to its linearity.
