A continuous time signal is a function that is continuous, meaning there are no breaks in the signal. For all real values of t you will get a value.

What is continuous-time signal?
A continuous-time (CT) signal is a function, s(t), that is defined for all time t contained in some interval on the real line. For historical reasons, CT signals are often called analog signals.
What is continuous signal and discrete signal?
A continuous-time signal has values for all points in time in some (possibly infinite) interval. A discrete time signal has values for only discrete points in time.
What is continuous-time signal example?
The electrical signals derived in proportion with the physical quantities such as temperature, pressure, sound etc. are generally continuous signals. Other examples of continuous signals are sine wave, cosine wave, triangular wave etc.
What is a continuous-time system?
A continuous-time system is a system in which the signals at input and output are continuous-time signals. This chapter connects signals with systems, especially the study of linear time-invariant dynamic systems.
