1. Find Impulse response of a system H(ejw) = using MATLAB.
𝟏−𝐞−𝐣𝐰+𝟎.𝟗𝐞−𝐣𝟐𝐰
2. Plot Frequency transform (i.e magnitude and phase response) of following function
20
1
ℎ [𝑛 ] = ∑ 𝛿[𝑛 − 𝑘]
20
𝑘=0
using
I. fft() command
II. freqz() command
and then recover h[n] from these frequency responses using ifft() and plot the signal h[n].

3. Find cross-correlation of two discrete time sequences x(n) = 𝟎. 𝟗𝒏 𝒖[𝒏] and

y(n) = 𝒖[𝒏] − 𝒖[𝒏 − 𝟓] using conv() command.

4. Generate a discrete sequence x(n) and discrete random noise d(n) and then added noise to s(n)
i.e. y(n) = s(n) +d(n). Plot the x(n), d(n), y(n) and autocorrelation of y(n).

4.5 Lab Report
