    DeMorgan's Law extended to Union AND Intersection

    Hello. We all know that DeMorgan's Law is as follows: (A∪B)' = A'∩B' and (A∩B)' = A'∪B' where ' refers to the complement of a set and A and B are both sets. We also know that this can be extended to more than two terms. My question is whether or not the following is true: (A∩B∪C)' = A'∪B'∩C'...

    Courses Is Data Structures course old school?

    Hello. I am an EE student with two semester left. I can optionally take a course on Data Structures from the CS department this next semester but am unsure if the material is old school or is still relevant today. The course covers the following topics with programming assignments in C...

    Engineering Is Engineering Not for You? Don't Give Up - Our Expert Opinion!

    They say this kind of stuff in freshman and sophmore level classes. I think it is to "weed out" the less serious students. Don't quit.

    Proof of Z-Transform Property | X(z) and x(n) Relation

    This is where I am stuck. Am I going in the right direction?

    Proof of Z-Transform Property | X(z) and x(n) Relation

    Homework Statement Using the definition of the z-transform, show that if X(z) is the z-transform of x(n) = x_{R}(n) +jx_{I}(n), then: Z\{x^{*}(n)\}=X^{*}(z^{*})Homework Equations z-tranform definition: Z\{x(n)\}=X(z)=\sum x(n)z^{-n} The Attempt at a Solution x(n) = x_{R}(n) + jx_{I}(n)...

    Proving System is Time Invariant (T.I.) or Not

    So should it be that an input of x(n-n0) results in x(n-n0)*h(n-n0)?

    ROC in Sign function Z-transform

    So taking the z-transform and evaluating at z = e^(j*Omega) is the definition of the DTFT, right? Isn't the DTFT more prone to instability than the z-transform? Hmm.. I will think about this more. Maybe someone else is better suited to answer this question as my DSP class begins covering the...

    ROC in Sign function Z-transform

    Isn't it that if there the intersection of the ROC is null then you can't use the z-transform because it diverges?

    Proving System is Time Invariant (T.I.) or Not

    Homework Statement Prove that the system is either T.I. or is not T.I. Homework Equations y(n) = x(n)*h(n) x(n) is the input signal y(n) is the output signal h(n) is the system The Attempt at a Solution Inputing x(n-n0) into the system I get out: as the output x(n-n0)*h(n)...

    Meaning of continuous frequency domain

    So in a discrete domain the functions are only defined at integer values of the independent variables. For the continuous domain the functions are defined at real number values (or complex values in the case of the z-domain). For an example of a transformation that maps from a discrete domain...

    How to Verify the Equation: pi^2/8 = Sum (1/(2n+1)^2) without Prefix?

    So this is parsevals theorem? \frac{1}{\pi}\int_{-\pi}^\pi f^2(x)\:dx=\frac{a_0^2}{2}+\sum_{k=1}^\infty\left( a_k^2+b_k^2) ?

    Distributivity Theorem in Boolean Algebra

    Okay, I'll try that. But is there a way to simplify: A'B' + CA + CB to A'B' + C? Or can you just get stuck when simplifying Boolean expressions? Because when I work out the K-map on: A'B' + CA + CB I end up with: A'B' + C.

    Distributivity Theorem in Boolean Algebra

    Okay, so I am using this concept in the following problem but am getting stuck. I am trying to simplify the following expression (A' is the complement of A) : Y= A'B'C' + A'B'C + A'BC + AB'C + ABC Y= A'B'(C' + C) + AB'C + A'BC + ABC Y= A'B' + A'BC + AB'C + ABC Y = A'B' + AB'C + BC(A + A')...
