Definitely!

Exactly. You need to specify the ROC as well.

Text? I'm making it up as I go along.

H(e^*jw) --> H(e^(j(pi-w))) : So spectrum flip and shift by pi. So an LPF
will become a HPF. But as others have said ROC/stability needs thought.

Depending on your viewpoint (or your chosen region of convergence).
You can choose to view 1/(z-d), |d| > 1 as a stable non-causal system
whose impulse response occurs strictly before the excitation, or you can
choose to view it as an unstable system.

Check to see how the author of the text you're reading wants you to view

One way to think of H(z^-1) is as H(z), but time-reversed.
One way to think of H(-z) is as H(z) modulated by a unit sinusoid of
frequency fs/2 (so its values are just + / - 1).
Combine the two and you have a modulated, time-reversed version of
H(z).
Sometimes "time"-reversal is useful in image processing if you want to
run the filter H(z) forwards in "time" (e.g.left-to-right across the
image) and then backwards in "time" (e.g. right-to-left across the
image).
Modulation can be useful if you're interested in complementary filters
where | H1(z) |^2 +| H2(z)|^2 = K, a constant.
With the constraint H1(z) = H2(-z) and H1 being low-pass, you can get
some nice properties for sub-band coding / decomposition.

Uhh, it doesn't quite work that way...
A sinusoidal signal in the sampled time domain corresponds to a point z
= e^(j*th) in the z domain; i.e. if you have a signal with a frequency
of 0.1 radian/sample, that turns into a z-domain signal with poles at
e^(0.1 * j) and e^(-0.1 * j).
What are you trying to _do_? H(-z^-1) would be a system where the
stability boundary is at |z| = 1, like the regular z domain, but where
systems inside the boundary are unstable, and where DC is at z = -1. I
don't see any advantage to it in normal usage.

Hello all.
Could somebody help me interpret the meaning of this Z tranform notation.
If H(z) represented a complex frequency spectrum lets say a lowpass filter
response centered at center frequency k/M . (I hope im saying this right,
but the point is that the spectrum need not be symetric).
That is to say H(-z) represents that same spectrum except it now resides at
center frequency -k/M.
How is the notation H(-z^-1) interpreted? Would that be the spectrum
located at the center frequency -k/M but frequency inverted such that the
shape of the magnitude (what ever it may have been flips from left to right
on the frequency axis)?
How is H(-z^-1) interpreted in relation to H(z) of the origional spectrum
in terms of magnitude and phase?
thanks in advance
