Nyquist Sampling theorem<br />

“In order to convert an analog signal to digital it is necessary to use a sampling<br />

frequency (f s ) at least two times the highest frequency”<br />

• f s ≥ 2BW (in Hertzs)<br />

i.e. to digitalize a phone channel BW c = 4000 Hz in 8 bits each sample it<br />

would be necessary:<br />

• f s =2*4000=8000 Hz<br />

T= 125μs: this is the base period for all digital networks<br />

codifying:<br />

• 8000 samples/seg* 8 bits/sample = 64.000 bits/seg<br />

this is the basic speed for digital channels<br />
