Q
Q: What is the Nyquist rate in a communication system?
Solution:
The Nyquist rate is the minimum sampling rate required to avoid aliasing, which is twice the highest frequency of the signal.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that signals can have different frequencies, which are how fast the signal changes.
Step 2: Know that when we want to process or transmit a signal, we need to sample it, which means taking measurements at certain intervals.
Step 3: Realize that if we sample too slowly, we can lose important information about the signal. This is called aliasing.
Step 4: The Nyquist rate tells us how fast we need to sample to avoid losing information.
Step 5: The Nyquist rate is calculated as twice the highest frequency present in the signal.
Step 6: For example, if the highest frequency of the signal is 1000 Hz, the Nyquist rate would be 2000 Hz.
