"We use the word signal to mean a time history of voltage or current in an electric network. The voltage or current variation with time may represent a message, music, a television picture, etc. In our elementary study of signals, we will include sinusoidal waveform used to transmit energy. We exclude signals which must be described by statistical properties, leaving this important study for later study. All signals we study may be described by real numbers which may be positive or negative (or zero). "—the authors from the first paragraph of chapter 1.
