Today we explained how to recover a signal from its samples. To understand how things work, we looked at the sampling process in the frequency domain. We observed that, when Nyquist's condition is satisfied, the Fourier transform of the sampling of a band-limited signal consists of copies of the Fourier transform of the original signal. Satisfying Nyquist's condition insures that there is "space" between the copies, so that one can recover the initial signal by low-pass-filtering.

Today we explained how to recover a signal from its samples. To understand how things work, we looked at the sampling process in the frequency domain. We observed that, when Nyquist's condition is satisfied, the Fourier transform of the sampling of a band-limited signal consists of copies of the Fourier transform of the original signal. Satisfying Nyquist's condition insures that there is "space" between the copies, so that one can recover the initial signal by low-pass-filtering. This actually proves Nyquist's theorem.
