Replacing "e" in Euler's formula with another number
Does Euler's formula remain valid if we use any real number other than the constant $e$? For example replacing $e$ with 5 would make the formula look like this: $5^{it}$.
I tried this idea in Matlab and replaced $e$ with few other real numbers…

Optimal amplitude of an $m$-bit sinusoid
A continuous-time sinusoid of zero-to-peak real amplitude $A \le 2^{m-1}-0.5$ (e.g., for $m=16$, $A \le 32767.5$) is quantized to $m$-bit resolution by rounding it to the nearest integer (Fig. 1). What is the optimal amplitude for different $m \le…

Running Integral of sine and cosine functions
In typical signal processing course we were taught that the integral of signal $x(t)$ is given by
$$y(t) = \int_{-\infty}^{t}x(\tau) d\tau$$
How can we use this definition to evaluate the integrals of eternal sinusoids, $x(t) = \sin (t)$ or $x(t)…

Bridging CTFT and DTFT for a cosine
I'm trying to understand how I can start from the CTFT of a signal and end up with a DTFT.
For example if I take a basic example:
$$\begin{aligned}
x(t) &= \cos(\omega_x \cdot t) = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \left( e^{j\omega_x t} + e^{-j\omega_x t} \right)…

DTFT of sine wave using freqz
As mentioned in the title, is it possible to use freqz to find the DTFT of a sine wave? I am confused about what the 'a' and 'b' vectors would look like, since there are only impulses in the numerator.

What are the cosine functions in JPEG's DCT-II table?
As I understand it from this video, in a JPEG image an 8x8-pixel block is made up of weighted cosine waves, calculated using DCT-II. There are lots of visualizations of these waves, such as this one from the Wikipedia article on JPEG…

Sinusoid with increasing frequency
How would you describe this signal? It's like a sinusoid but as if its frequency was constantly increasing: could you write down a mathematical description? Thanks. And no, this is not homework...

A question about sampling rate of cosine signal
Given $$c(t) = \cos(2\pi\cdot 30 \cdot t) $$
If we sample this signal at the Nyquist rate 60 Hz and at a higher rate of 80 Hz, we get the following:
There is no aliasing as $f$ = 30 Hz is less than or equal to the folding frequency, 30 Hz and 40…

How would one design a (quasi) linear phase adaptive notch filter for a single complex tone?
While IIR notch filters are attractive, I need to retain phase linearity at the filter output. I imagine that it's possible to use a standard IIR notch …

Linear prediction (LPC) of Sine wave samples around maximas
I think I missed class when this was explained ...
Anyway as part of a bigger project I have to implement a LPC to predict 2-3 future values of a sinusoidal process. I wrote a small Matlab m-file to calculate the predictor coefficients and plot the…

Z-transform of $\cos(\omega_0 n(n+1))u[n]$
I'm doing some research on Zadoff-Chu sequences and as a part of it I wanted to find the Z-transform of:
$$\cos(\omega_0 n(n+1))u[n]$$
Wolfram Alpha / Mathematica couldn't help out. I couldn't find a way to do this from identities so I tried doing…

Setting up RRC filter and useful equations
I have looked at previous answers but cant seem to get everything I need in one place to help me and my textbook doesnt explain this in practical terms.
Signal Parameters:

Optimization of harmonics calculation
I need to compute the sine and cosine of an argument along with n "harmonics"
\begin{matrix} \sin(x) & \cos(x) \\
\sin(2x) & \cos(2x) \\

\sin(nx) & \cos(nx)
\end{matrix}
This takes a lot of computing time and since this is a real-time…
