Sampling Frequency (Noun)
Meaning
(telecommunication) the frequency of sampling a continuously varying signal.
Classification
Nouns denoting time and temporal relations.
Examples
- The sampling frequency of the analog-to-digital converter was set to 44.1 kHz to match the CD audio standard.
- In digital signal processing, the sampling frequency must be at least twice the highest frequency component of the signal to avoid aliasing.
- The Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem states that the sampling frequency must be greater than twice the bandwidth of the signal to accurately reconstruct the original signal.
- The sampling frequency of the oscilloscope was increased to 1 GHz to capture the high-frequency components of the signal.
- The audio signal was sampled at a frequency of 96 kHz to provide a high-quality digital representation of the analog signal.
