Abstract
A discrete-time system is one in which the signals of the system are defined only at discrete instants of time. Discrete-time systems arise on the one side from modelling systems, that are inherently digital such as economic systems, population models, radar tracking systems, digital filters, and computer-controlled systems, where the inputs and outputs are periodically sampled; and on the other side from approximation of continuous-time models, where the inputs and outputs are approximated as piecewise constant functions.
