Two discrete-time linear time-invariant systems have impulse responses h1[n] = δ[n−1] + δ[n+1] and h2[n] = δ[n−1] + δ[n+1], where δ[n] is the Kronecker delta. The overall system is

  1. δ[n−2] + δ[n+2]
  2. δ[n−1]δ[n] + δ[n+1]δ[n−1]
  3. δ[n−2] + 2δ[n] + δ[n+2]
  4. δ[n−1] + δ[n+1]

Correct answer: δ[n−2] + 2δ[n] + δ[n+2]

Solution

The correct option combines the effects of both impulse responses through convolution, resulting in the sum of shifted delta functions. Each impulse response contributes to the overall system output, leading to the presence of the central term with a coefficient of 2, indicating that the system amplifies the response at n=0.
