Question about Z transform of decimation

Jeff - 2004-09-06 17:48:00
Hi, I am learning about digital decimation. The problem is like this: Z-transform of input sequence and filter aree X(z), H(z) respectively. After the filter H(z), there is a 2 decimation. From one book talking about decimation, it says the Z-transform of output sequence after decimation is: ...Question about Z transform of decimation

If a z transform has a pole on the unit circle does that signal have a fourier transform?

Single pole lowpass --> highpass - z transform?

C Warwick - 2008-07-31 22:53:00
Ok, say i have a single pole lowpass filter, 1 pole, no zero. y[0] = c.x[0] + (1-c).y[-1] This is basicly a single pole moving from (0,0) to (1,0) on the real axis. And normalized at DC. Now by doing this seperately after the lowpass. highpass = x[0] - y[0] You get a high pass. But ...Single pole lowpass --> highpass - z transform?
