Re: z-transform and DTFT
z-transform:dtft :: laplace transform:fourier transform
In casse there are super exponential signals, one cannot find the Fourier Transform. In order to obtain a transform, not necessarily the spectrum, the signal is first "killed" by a super-super exponential and the transform taken.The advantage it offers is that a larger family of signals can be transformed.In the digital domain it is the DTFT and z-tranform, while in the analog domain it is the Fourier transform and the Laplace transform
