Bravo to Harry Nyquist and Claude Shannon! In the 1920s, these gentlemen created the now-well-known Nyquist theorem, which states that when sampling a signal at discrete intervals, the sampling must ...

When electrical engineers hear the name "Nyquist," they think of what Harry Nyquist is best known for: his Sampling Theorem. Evidence of its importance is everywhere. Products like cell phones, audio ...

The concept behind digitizing sound. Working at Bell Labs, Harry Nyquist discovered that it was not necessary to capture the entire analog waveform, and samples of the wave could be taken at various ...

Traditionally, undersampling is utilized in communication applications where a range of non-baseband signals sitting above the nyquist frequency are desired to be sampled. The bandwidth of these ...

As an engineer at Bell Laboratories, Harry Nyquist did important work on thermal noise (“Johnson–Nyquist noise”), the stability of feedback amplifiers, telegraphy, facsimile, television, and other ...
