Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given impulse responses h1[n] and h2[n], define a new signal using them on x[n]. Explore a case where the results differ with different grouping to analyze the effects.

💡 Hint: Reflect on why and how certain arrangements yield different system behaviors.

Challenge 2 Hard

If two systems are combined in cascade, one unstable and one stable but both employ associativity, illustrate how their properties affect the collective output.

💡 Hint: Consider what happens to signals when one system’s instability interacts with another.
