Advanced z-transform


In mathematics and signal processing, the advanced z-transform is an extension of the z-transform, to incorporate ideal delays that are not multiples of the sampling time. It takes the form
where
It is also known as the modified z-transform.
The advanced z-transform is widely applied, for example to accurately model processing delays in digital control.

Properties

If the delay parameter, m, is considered fixed then all the properties of the z-transform hold for the advanced z-transform.

Linearity

Time shift

Damping

Time multiplication

Final value theorem

Example

Consider the following example where :
If then reduces to the transform
which is clearly just the z-transform of.
