Abstract

We introduce in the paper two second-moment-type quantities characterizing the localization of a sequence in discrete-time and frequency respectively. Their product satisfies an uncertainty relation. The sequences that reach the lowest uncertainty level are found. One of them is the binomial sequence. In an appropriate limit case for the transition from discrete-time to continuous-time signals, those sequences tend to the Gaussian signal. The second and corresponding first moments are physically interpreted. In frequency, the interpretation is related to the gravity center and inertia moment of a unit-mass ring. In time, it is based on the ordinary first and second moments of specially filtered, as well as, non-filtered original sequences.
