How does a quantized signal represent all magnitudes?
I am having trouble with some intuition with quantization, bit-depth, noise floor, dynamic range and signal/noise ratio. Let's say I have two signals, $s_1$ and $s_2$ that are 1hz sine waves, with ...

s to z domain transformation
I have $2^{nd}$ order bessel filter transfer function. I want to model this analog bessel filter in FPGA. For this I need its digital or discrete form. I am trying to get digital filter's coefficients ...

CPM Modulation and Demodulation, How to determine the values for normalized bandwidth?
See table related to CPM Modulation which specifies $L$, $h$, $B_{norm}$ and sampling rate $f_s$. $B_{norm}$ and the sampling rate $f_s$ are directly related and I understand that relationship. What I ...

Meaning of the phase of a sample
In a sampled signal RF signal with I,Q parts, if we represent each sample as an amplitude and phase, what does the phase of a sample mean? Does it say something about the RF signal at that point of ...

does extension to reals of an arbitrary signal with a zero tail eventually cross a threshold
Suppose I have a sampled signal $S(x) :=\space [ \space ..., X_{-2}, \space X_{-1}, \space 0, \space 0, \space 0, \space 0, \space ... \space ]$
where $\{X\}_{n}$ is bounded by $\pm1$ when n is a ...

Sinc droop in a simple sampling mixer
This question is about the conceptual interpretation of a track-and-hold mixing operation implemented conceptually below, where an output $y(t)$ tracks an input $x(t)$ for half of a period $T_{LO}$ ...

Frequency sampling
How does nyquist sampling theorem works. For example, given a signal with rang 0.5 to 1.5 Hz, why does the fs is 2 Hz?

DAC - Can we create and use frequencies above Fs/2?
I understand how the ADC and Nyquist works. Anything above Fs/2 can be indistinguishable from frequencies inside Fs/2 so we use an alias filter to remove them before sampling. This can also be an ...

Best Approach To Demodulate AM Signal
I have a way of direct sampling negative polarities and positive polarities using an ADC. I store the values separately. When I use Python to FFT, either polarity samples, the returned results can be ...

What is the Expression for Reconstruction After Derivative Sampling?
I've been trying to use Equation (1) in Linden and Abramson to reconstruct a signal using uniformly spaced samples of the signal and its first and second derivatives. The reconstruction seems to work ...

Why is sampling not “idempotent”?
This answer describes succinctly what sampling a continuous signal means in the frequency domain:
$$
\begin{align*}
x(t)\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\delta(t-nT)
&\leftrightarrow \frac{1}{T}\sum_{k=-\...

Upsampling realtime data for sensor fusion
I am doing a real-time sensor fusion of gps and imu streams using a Kalman filter. Both streams are obtained independently (with geolocation and accl-gyro values) in real time. I am doing this in ...
