Nyquist Theorem -- Sampling Rate Versus bandwidth The Nyquist Theorem states that a signal must be sampled at least twice as fast as the bandwidth of the signal to accurately reconstruct the waveform; otherwise, the high-frequency content will alias at a frequency inside the spectrum of interest (passband). An alias is a false lower frequency component that appears in sampled data acquired at too low a Sampling rate. The following figure shows a 5 MHz sine wave digitized by a 6 MS/s ADC. The dotted line indicates the aliased signal recorded by the ADC at that sample rate. Sine Wave Demonstrating the Nyquist Frequency The 5 MHz frequency aliases back in the passband, falsely appearing as a 1 MHz sine wave. To prevent aliasing in the passband, a lowpass filter limits the frequency content of the input signal above the Nyquist rate. Filtering In the frequency domain, its relatively easy to remove certain frequencies from the digital signal.
