INTRODUCTION
The sampling prcess is the generation of discrete-time
signals from continuous-time signals,
T is the sampling period.

IDEAL SAMPLING
Ideal sampling of a signal xc(t) is accomplished by
multiplying this signal by the ideal periodic impulse
train s(t)
s(t) Conversion
xs(t) from impulse x[n]= xc(nT)
xc(t) train to
discrete-time
sequence

is

COMMENTS
In case 2, when the sampling frequency is less
than twice the highest frequency contained by
the sampled signal, the reconstruction of the
original signal is impossible. This phenomena is
known as ALIASING
The sampling theorem, which is usually known
as Shanon’s Theorem, states that any band
limited signal can be fully recovered from its
samples, provided that the sampling rate is at
least equal to twice the highest frequency of the
sampled signal.
