EEE 309 Communication Theory: Instructor: Tishna Sabrina Summer 2016

This document discusses analog to digital conversion through sampling and quantization. It explains that the sampling rate must be high enough to reconstruct the analog signal accurately, and sampling theorem determines the proper sampling rate for a given signal. Sampling theorem states that a band-limited signal can be reconstructed from samples taken at a rate of at least twice the signal bandwidth. The document proves sampling theorem using Fourier analysis and discusses practical issues in sampling and reconstruction such as non-ideal reconstruction filters and aliasing.

Sampling & A-to-D Conversion

Analog to Digital Conversion

Analog signals can be digitized through


sampling and quantization.
The sampling rate must be sufficiently large
so that the analog signal can be
reconstructed from the samples with
sufficient accuracy.
Sampling theorem is the basis for
determining the proper sampling rate for a
given signal.

Sampling theorem

A band-limited signal g(t) of bandwidth B (Hz) can be


reconstructed exactly from data samples taken at a
sampling rate R, if R 2B.
Minimum sampling frequency, fs = 2B Hz.
Sampling g(t) at a rate of fs Hz means that fs uniform
samples are taken per second.

Achieved by multiplying g(t) by an unit impulse train T (t).

Proof of Sampling Theorem

The multiplication results in a sampled


signal consisting of impulses spaced
every Ts seconds.
The nth sample, located at t = nTs has a
strength g(nTs).
Thus the relationship between the
sampled and original analog signal is

The Fourier expression of T (t) is .

So,

Proof of Sampling Theorem

Graphically, perfect recovery is possible if there is no


overlap among the replicas in .
The requirement is clearly
or .
Nyquist Rate: Minimum sampling rate,
Nyquist Interval: Minimum sampling interval, .

Signal Reconstruction from Uniform Impulses

The process is also known as interpolation.


Passing the sampled signal through an ideal low pass
filter of BW B Hz and gain Ts will reconstruct
(/interpolate) the original signal.
Thus the reconstruction or interpolating filter transfer
function is

Here the process is expressed in frequency domain.


Let us examine this process in time domain.

Ideal Interpolation

Assuming the use of Nyquist sampling rate, that is, 2BTS =1,

An interesting fact is that,


at all Nyquist sampling instants
except t = 0.
When the sampled signal
is applied at the input of this filter, the
output is
.
Each sample in
generates a sinc pulse of height equal to the
strength of the sample as shown in next slide.
