y(n) = T{x(n)} where T{.} is an operator that maps an input sequence x(n) into an output sequence y(n).

Superposition Example
y1 = T{u1}; y2 = T{u2} Y3 = T{u1 + u2} = y1 + y
ky1 = T(ku1)
Non-linear Systems: y(n) = x²(n) (i.e. T{.} = (.) ²) T{x 1 (n) + x 2 (n)} = x 1 ²(n) + x 2 ²(n) + 2x 1 (n)x 2 (n)

both linear and time-invariant (sometimes referred to as a Linear Shift-Invariant (LSI) system)
3. Analog and Discrete Signals
An analog signal x ( t ) is a continuous function of time; that is, x ( t ) is uniquely defined for all t
A discrete signal x ( kT ) is one that exists only at discrete times; it is characterized by a sequence of numbers defined for each time, kT, where k is an integer T is a fixed time interval.
4. Energy and Power Signals
Energy Signal
The performance of a communication system depends on the received signal energy; higher energy signals are detected more reliably (with fewer errors) than are lower energy signals
x ( t ) is classified as an energy signal if, and only if, it has nonzero but finite energy (0 < E (^) x < ∞) for all time, where:
E (^) x = lim ∫ x^2 (t) dt = ∫ x^2 (t) dt
An energy signal has finite energy but zero average power.
Signals that are both deterministic and non-periodic are classified as energy signals

Power is the rate at which energy is delivered.
A signal is defined as a power signal if, and only if, it has finite but nonzero power (0 < P (^) x < ∞) for all time, where
P (^) x = lim 1/T ∫ x^2 (t) dt
Power signal has finite average power but infinite energy.
As a general rule, periodic signals and random signals are classified as power signals
