Question 1

What does the Nyquist theorem state?

The sampling rate must be equal to the highest frequency.
The sampling rate must be greater than twice the highest frequency.
The sampling rate can be less than the highest frequency.

💡 Hint: Consider how many samples you need in relation to frequency.

Question 2

True or False: Aliasing can be avoided by sampling at any rate.

True
False

💡 Hint: Think about the implications of low sampling rates.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A continuous-time signal has frequency components up to 10 kHz. Determine the minimum sampling frequency required to avoid aliasing and justify your answer.

💡 Hint: Remember the relationship between sampling frequency and maximum frequency.

Challenge 2 Hard

Discuss the implications of aliasing in a real-world scenario, such as audio processing, and suggest a method to prevent it.

💡 Hint: Consider how to clean up signals before they are recorded.
