Introduction

Consider a CT cosine signal (a pure frequency), and sample that signal with a rate above or below Nyquist rate. In this slecture, I will talk about how does the discrete-time Fourier transform of the sampling of this signal look like. Suppose the cosine signal is $ x(t)=cos(2pi*440t) $.

Sampling rate above Nyquist rate

The Nyquist sampling rate $ fs=2fM=880 $,so we pick a sample frequency 1000 which is above the Nyquist rate.

$ \begin{align} \\ x_1[n] & =x(\frac{n}{1000}) \\ & =cos(\frac{2\pi440*n}{1000}) \\ & =\frac{1}{2}(e^{\frac{j2\pi440*n}{1000}}+e^{\frac{-j2\pi440*n}{1000}})\\ \end{align} $

Sampling rate below Nyquist rate
