Time-invariant System
A time-invariant (TIV) system is one whose output does not depend explicitly on time.
- If the input signal produces an output then any time shifted input, results in a time-shifted output
This property can be satisfied if the transfer function of the system is not a function of time except expressed by the input and output. This property can also be stated in another way in terms of a schematic
- If a system is time-invariant then the system block is commutative with an arbitrary delay.

Famous quotes containing the word system:
“To care for the quarrels of the past, to identify oneself passionately with a cause that became, politically speaking, a losing cause with the birth of the modern world, is to experience a kind of straining against reality, a rebellious nonconformity that, again, is rare in America, where children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
