Let
be a discrete-time signal whose
-transform is
.
Which of the following statements is/are TRUE?
The discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT) of
always exists
The region of convergence (RoC) of
contains neither poles nor zeros
The discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT) exists if the region of convergence (RoC) contains the unit circle
If
, where
is the unit impulse and
is a scalar, then the region of convergence
is the entire
-plane
Option (A): The DTFT of
exists if
is absolutely Summable, ie, if
.
This is not true for all signals. For example,
False statement.
Option (B): The ROC of a z-transform is defined as the set of points in the z-plane where the z-transform converges. It can contain zero but not poles, as poles would causes divergence.
False statement.
Option (C): The DTFT of
exists if the unit circle
lies within the
of the
-transform.
True statement.
Option (D): For
, which is a constant.
This converges everywhere in the
-plane, making the ROC the entire complex plane.
True Statement.
Hence, options (c) and (d) are correct.
