Consider the following discrete time system

where

math

In this problem, we will explore some of the properties of this discrete time system as a function of the parameters, the initial conditions, and the inputs.

  1. Assume that the off diagonal element a12 = 0 and that there is no input, u = 0. Write a closed form expression for the output of the system from a nonzero initial condition z[0] = (z1[0],z2[0]) and give conditions on a11 and a22 under which the output gets smaller as k gets larger.

  2. Now assume that a_{12} \neq 0 and write a closed form expression for the response of the system from a nonzero initial conditions. Given a condition on the elements of A under which the output gets smaller as k gets larger.

  3. Write a MATLAB program to plot the output of the system in response to a unit step input, u[k] = 1, k \geq 0. Plot the response of your system with z[0] = 0 and A given by
