With respect to the Z-transform used in discrete-time signal analysis, consider the following statements:1.The Z-transform serves as the discrete-time counterpart of the Laplace Transform.2.The region of convergence in the Z-plane typically takes the form of a circular ring.3.The ROC necessarily includes the poles of the system function.4.For a discrete-time system to be stable, the unit circle must lie within the ROC.Which of the above statements is/are correct?
