Signals Basic Types: Unit Step Function
1 t ⩾ 0
Unit step function is denoted by u(t). It is defined as u(t) = {
0 t < 0
1 t = 0
Impulse function is denoted by δ(t). and it is defined as δ(t) = {
0 t ≠ 0
∞
∫ δ(t)dt = u(t)
−∞
du(t)
δ(t) =
dt
Ramp Signal
t t ⩾ 0
Ramp signal is denoted by r(t), and it is defined as r(t) = {
0 t < 0
∫ u(t) = ∫ 1 = t = r(t)
dr(t)
u(t) =
dt

Rectangular Signal
Let it be denoted as x(t) and it is defined as
Triangular Signal
Let it be denoted as x(t)
Sinusoidal Signal
Sinusoidal signal is in the form of x(t) = A cos( w0 ± ϕ ) or A sin( w0 ± ϕ )
Where T0 =
