Theory of Sampling
In analog communication systems like AM, FM the instantaneous value of the
information signal is used to change certain parameter of the carrier signal.
Pulse modulation systems differ from these systems in a way that they transmit a
limited no, of discrete states of a signal at a predetermined time; sampling can be
defined as measuring the value of an information signal at_ predetermined. time
intervals. The rate of which the signal is sampled is known as the sampling rate or
sampling frequency. It is the major parameter. Which decides the quality of the
reproduced signal. If the signal is sampled quite frequently (whose limit is specified
by Nyquist Criterion) then it can be reproduced exactly at the receiver with no
distortion.
Nyquist Criterion :
As shown in the Fig 1, the lowest sampling frequency that can be used without the
side bands overlapping is twice the highest frequency component present in the
information signal. If we reduce this sampling frequency even further, the side bands
and the information signal will overlap and we cannot recover the information signal
simply by low pass filtering. This phenomenon is known as fold-over distortion or
aliasing.

Nyquist Criterion (Sampling Theorem) :
‘The Nyquist Criterion states that a continuous signal band limited to fn Hz can be
completely represented by and reconstructed from the samples taken at a rate greater
than or equal to 2fm, samples/second.
This minimum sampling frequency is known as NYQUIST RATE i.e. for faithful
reproduction of information signal f3 > 2fm
Effect of Duty Cycle on Information Recovery :
The duty cycle of a signal is defined as, the ratio of pulse duration to the pulse
repetition period. This ratio can also be expressed as percentage. e.g. the square wave
has equal pulse and no pulse duration; hence its duty cycle is 0.5 or 50%
