Standard Continuous Time Signals Some of the standard continuous time signals covered here include:
1. DC Signal
2. Unit Step Signal
3. Unit Impulse / Delta Signal
4. Ramp Signal
5. Signum Signal
6. Rectangular Pulse or Gate Function
7. Triangular Function
8. Sinusoidal Function
9. Sampling Function
10. Sinc Function
11. Exponential Function
DC Signal
It is given as for both continuous and discrete signals
x(t) = A ; –∞ < t < ∞
x[n] = A ; –∞ < n < ∞
Unit Step Signal
Continuous time unit step signal is defined as
3 | P a g e
u(t) = {1 ; t ≥ 00 ; t > 0
Similar concept is followed in discrete time unit step signal.
Unit Impulse / Delta Signal
It is defined as
δ(t) = {1; t = 00; t ≠ 0
and ∫ δ(t) = 1∞
−∞
Similarly, you can derive for discrete time delta signal. Some properties of
continuous time delta signal are given as follows
(𝐢) δ(at) =1
|a|δ(t)
(𝐢𝐢) x(t)δ(t − t0) = x(t0)δ(t − t0)
(𝐢𝐢𝐢) ∫ x(t)δ(t − t0)dt∞
−∞= x(t0)

(𝐢𝐯) δ(t) =d
dt(u(t))
(𝐯) u(t) = ∫ δ(t)dtt
−∞
(𝐯𝐢) x(t) ∗ δ(t) = u(t) [Replication Property of Delta Signal]
The properties for discrete time impulse signal are a bit different for some. These are
(i) δ[an] = δ[n]
(ii) x[n] δ[n-k] = x[k] δ[n-k]
(iii) δ[n] = u[n] - u[n-1]
(𝐢𝐯) u[n] = ∑ δ[k] = ∑ δ[n − k]nk=0
nk=−∞
The derivative and integral of singular or non-analytic functions are determined
using indirect method. Since impulse is a singular function. Therefore, to
determine its derivative, first we approximate it by a pulse of width ‘a’ and height
‘1/a’ and as ‘a’ tends to zero we get the continuous delta function. So we can say
that the unit impulse function is sometimes approximated to a delta function. A delta
function can be shown as follows:
Area of a delta function is 1.

Combination of two impulses is known as doublet.
δ'(t)→ Doublet, δ''(t) → Quadraplet, δ'''(t) → Octaplet
The properties of doublet are as below –
(𝐢) δ′(t) = {0; t ≠ 0 undefined; t = 0
} and ∫ δ′(t)dt = 0∞

(𝐢𝐢) δ′(at) = 1

(𝐯) δ′(−(t − t0)) = −δ′(t − t0)
(𝐯𝐢) ∫ x(t)δ′(t)dt = −x′(0)∞

Ramp Signal
A continuous time ramp signal is defined as
r(t) = {t; t ≥ 00; t < 0
Or r(t) = t u(t)
Its value increases linearly with time.
1. Subtraction of the ramp signal decreases the slope.
2. Addition of the ramp signal increases the slope.
Also, u(t) =dr(t)
dt or r(t) = ∫ u(t)dt
t
−∞
Similarly, try to derive for discrete time ramp signal. We can see some transformed
signals from r(t).
7 | P a g e
Signum Signal
Continuous time signum signal is defined as
sgn(t) = {1; t > 0−1; t < 00; t = 0
It can also be written as
sgn(t) = u(t) - u(-t)
The phenomenon is similar in discrete time signum signal.
Rectangular Pulse or Gate Function
Continuous time rectangular pulse function is denoted by
A rect (t−t0
τ) /A gate (
t−t0
τ)
Here A = Amplitude, t0 = Centre, τ = Width
If centre is at origin, then it is defined as
A rect (t
τ) = {
A; |t| ≤τ
2
0; otherwise
8 | P a g e
Kindly note the difference between the continuous time and discrete time signals in
this
case.
Discrete time rectangular gate function is defined as
A rect (n−n0
N) OR A gate (
n−n0
N)
Where A = Amplitude, n0 = Centre of the pulse
N = Number of samples to the right ride from the centre or the number of samples to
the left side from the centre.
Triangular Function
Continuous time triangular function is denoted by A tri (t−t0
τ ) or A ∆ (
t−t0
τ)
Where A = Height of the signal, t0 = centre, τ = Half width
9 | P a g e
Discrete triangular time signal is similar to the continuous triangular time signal.
Sinusoidal Function
The sinusoidal signals include sine and cosine signals.
Sine Signal = Asinωt = A sin(2πft)Cosine Signal = A cos ωt = A cos(2πft)
} continuous time
Sampling Function
Sampling function is denoted let Sa (x) and is defined as follows
Sa(x) =sinx
x
Some of its properties are given as below
(i) Sa(-x) = Sa (x) [i.e. sampling function is an even function]
(𝐢𝐢) limx→0
Sa(x) = 1
10 | P a g e
(𝐢𝐢𝐢) limx→nπ
Sa(x) = 0 ; n = +1, ±2, ±3, … …
(𝐢𝐯) limn→∞
Sa(x) = 0
It can be plotted as
Sinc Function Sinc function is defined as
Sinc(x) =sin(πx)
πx
Sinc(x) = Sa(πx)
The curve for the sampling and sinc functions are the same.
Exponential Function
General form of exponential function is est; where s is complex.
x(t) = est and s = σ + jω
x(t) = e(σ+jω)t = eσt ejωt
Case I - For s = 0, est = 1 is a DC signal.
Case II - For ω = 0, est = eσt
eσt is known as real exponential.
For σ > 0, the signal will grow exponentially.
11 | P a g e
For σ < 0, the signal will be decaying exponential.
Case III - For σ = 0 & ω ≠ 0, ejωt will be a periodic complex exponential with period
T0 =2π
ω
𝐂𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐈𝐕 − For σ ≠ 0 & ω ≠ 0x(t) = eσtejωt
For σ > 0
Re(x(t)) = eσt cosωt is a growing sinusoidal
For σ < 0
Re(x(t)) = eσt cosωt is a decaying sinusoidal
12 | P a g e
Similar phenomenon is followed in discrete time equivalent of exponential signals.
Let us try out some examples now -
Example 1:
Simplify δ(t2 – 3t + 2)
Solution:
x(t) = δ(t2 – 3t + 2)
f(t) = t2 – 3t + 2 = (t – 2)(t – 1)
f(t) has two roots at t = 1,2
f' (t) = 2t – 3
f' (1) = 2×1 – 3 = –1
f' (2) = 2×2 – 3 = 1
So, δ(t2 − 3t + 2) = 1
|f′(t1)|δ(t − t1) +
1
|f′(t2)|δ(t − t2)
Here,
t1 = 1 and f' (t1) = –1
t2 = 2 and f' (t2) = 1
⇒ δ(t2 − 3t + 2) = 1
|−1|δ(t − 1) +

⇒ δ(t2 − 3t + 2) = δ(t − 1) + δ(t − 2)

Thus, we listed some of the important standard signals important for competitive
exam point of view. After this, we will discuss the classification of signals based on
their properties.
