Phasor and Carrier Components of Sinusoids

If we restrict $ z_1$ in Eq.(4.10) to have unit modulus, then $ \sigma=0$ and we obtain a discrete-time complex sinusoid.

$\displaystyle x(n) \isdef z_0 z_1^n = \left(Ae^{j\phi}\right) e^{j\omega n T} = A e^{j(\omega n T+\phi)}, \quad n=0,1,2,3,\ldots \protect$ (4.11)

where we have defined

\begin{eqnarray*}
z_0 &\isdef & Ae^{j\phi}, \quad \hbox{and}\\
z_1 &\isdef & e^{j\omega T}.
\end{eqnarray*}
