Characterising Linear Spatio-Temporal Dynamical Systems in the Frequency Domain

A new concept, called the spatio-temporal transfer function (STTF), is introduced to characterise a class of linear time-invariant (LTI) spatio-temporal dynamical systems. The spatio-temporal transfer function is a natural extension of the ordinary transfer function for classical linear time-invariant control systems. As in the case of the classical transfer function, the spatio-temporal transfer function can be used to characterise, in the frequency domain, the inherent dynamics of linear time-invariant spatio-temporal systems. The introduction of the spatio-temporal transfer function should also facilitate the analysis of the dynamical stability of discrete-time spatio-temporal systems.
