Determine the discrete−time signal: x(n) = 1 for n ≥ 0 and x(n) = 0 for n < 0.
Answer & step-by-step solution
The sequence defined as 1 for n≥0 and 0 for n<0 is the discrete-time unit step u[n]. It switches from 0 to 1 at n=0 and remains at 1 thereafter.
Concept & Reasoning
The unit impulse δ[n] is nonzero only at n=0, whereas the unit step u[n] remains one for all nonnegative n. A unit ramp grows with n. These distinctions are fundamental in convolution and system-response problems.
How to Solve It in the Exam
One at and after zero → unit step.
Important Exam Point
Use δ[n] only for a single non-zero sample at n=0.
Quick Trick
One at and after zero → unit step.
Common Mistake
Confusing unit step with unit impulse.
