  2. Nyquist rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist_rate

    Fig 1: Typical example of Nyquist frequency and rate. They are rarely equal, because that would require over-sampling by a factor of 2 (i.e. 4 times the bandwidth). In signal processing, the Nyquist rate, named after Harry Nyquist, is a value equal to twice the highest frequency of a given function or signal

  3. Nyquist frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist_frequency

    For a given sampling rate (samples per second), the Nyquist frequency (cycles per second) is the frequency whose cycle-length (or period) is twice the interval between samples, thus 0.5 cycle/sample. For example, audio CDs have a sampling rate of 44100 samples/second. At 0.5 cycle/sample, the corresponding Nyquist frequency is 22050 cycles/second .

  4. Sampling (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_(signal_processing)

    The approximately double-rate requirement is a consequence of the Nyquist theorem. Sampling rates higher than about 50 kHz to 60 kHz cannot supply more usable information for human listeners. Early professional audio equipment manufacturers chose sampling rates in the region of 40 to 50 kHz for this reason.

  5. Normalized frequency (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalized_frequency...

    When is normalized with reference to the sampling rate as ′ =, the normalized Nyquist angular frequency is π radians/sample. The following table shows examples of normalized frequency for = kHz, = samples/second (often denoted by 44.1 kHz), and 4 normalization conventions:

  6. Bandwidth (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_(signal_processing)

    In the context of, for example, the sampling theorem and Nyquist sampling rate, bandwidth typically refers to baseband bandwidth. In the context of Nyquist symbol rate or Shannon-Hartley channel capacity for communication systems it refers to passband bandwidth. The Rayleigh bandwidth of a simple radar pulse is defined as the inverse of its ...

  7. Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist–Shannon_sampling...

    The Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem is an essential principle for digital signal processing linking the frequency range of a signal and the sample rate required to avoid a type of distortion called aliasing. The theorem states that the sample rate must be at least twice the bandwidth of the signal to avoid aliasing.

  8. 44,100 Hz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/44,100_Hz

    The selection of the sample rate was based primarily on the need to reproduce the audible frequency range of 20–20,000 Hz (20 kHz). The Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem states that a sampling rate of more than twice the maximum frequency of the signal to be recorded is needed, resulting in a required rate of greater than 40 kHz.

  9. Bandlimiting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandlimiting

    A bandlimited signal can be fully reconstructed from its samples, provided that the sampling rate exceeds twice the bandwidth of the signal. This minimum sampling rate is called the Nyquist rate associated with the Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem.
