sampled2continuous: Signal reconstruction

In gsignal: Signal Processing

Signal reconstruction

Description

Analog signal reconstruction from discrete samples.

Usage

sampled2continuous(xn, fs, t)

Arguments

xn	the sampled input signal, specified as a vector
fs	sampling frequency in Hz used in collecting x, specified as a positive scalar value. Default: 1
t	time points at which data is to be reconstructed, specified as a vector relative to x[0] (not real time).

Details

Given a discrete signal x[n] sampled with a frequency of fs Hz, this function reconstruct the original analog signal x(t) at time points t. The function can be used, for instance, to calculate sampling rate effects on aliasing.

Value

Reconstructed signal x(t), returned as a vector.

Examples

# 'analog' signal: 3 Hz cosine
t <- seq(0, 1, length.out = 100)
xt <- cos(3 * 2 * pi * t)
plot(t, xt, type = "l", xlab = "", ylab = "", ylim = c(-1, 1.2))

# 'sample' it at 4 Hz to simulate aliasing
fs <- 4
n <- ceiling(length(t) / fs)
xn <- xt[seq(ceiling(n / 2), length(t), n)]
s4 <- sampled2continuous(xn, fs, t)
lines(t, s4, col = "red")

# 'sample' it > 6 Hz to avoid aliasing
fs <- 7
n <- ceiling(length(t) / fs)
xn <- xt[seq(ceiling(n / 2), length(t), n)]
s7 <- sampled2continuous(xn, fs, t)
lines(t, s7, col = "green")
legend("topright", legend = c("original", "aliased", "non-aliased"),
  lty = 1, col = c("black", "red", "green"))
