Summary: Infinite dimensional discrete time dissipative scattering systems are introduced in terms of generalized (possibly unbounded) solutions of the Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov inequality (KYP-inequality). It is shown that for a minimal system the KYP-inequality has a generalized solution if and only if the transfer function of the system coincides with a Schur class function $\theta$ in a neighborhood of zero. The set of solutions of the KYP-inequality, its order structure, and the corresponding contractive systems are studied in terms of $\theta$. Also using the KYP-inequality a number of stability theorems are derived.
