Signal Sampling:
The signals we use in the real world, such as our voice, are called analog signals. At the transmitter, to process these
signals for digital communication, we need to convert analog signals to digital form. Sampling is the process of converting
analog signal into discrete time signal. The amplitude of the analog signal is measured at certain intervals in time. Each
measurement is referred to as a sample. Non linear mixing of analog signal with sampling pulse signal results in sampled
discrete pulses. For a perfect sampling, the minimum sampling rate is equal to twice the highest frequency of analog signal
called Nyquist sampling theorem.
In natural sampling, the sampled pulse amplitude takes the shape of the analog waveform for the period of the
sampling pulse. Natural sampling is accomplished by Sampler circuit. In flat top sampling, the sampled pulse takes the
amplitude of the analog waveform during the sampling period and the pulse amplitude is held relatively constant until the next
sample is taken. Flat top sampling is accomplished by Sample and Hold circuit.
Signal Reconstruction:
Reconstruction is the process of getting back the original analog signal from its discrete form. It is accomplished by
low pass filter circuit.
