Aliases
|
|
This simple model is designed to help with revision of the idea of an alias.
|
|
|
Two cases are included with the model which is showing a 50 Hz cosine signal. Using the cases buttons and the adjust button on the graph window, you can display each graph separately and superimposed if both buttons are selected.
|
|
The graphs are produced at different time intervals DT and this can be selected in the model.
|
|
Use the model and the edit copy window function to explain what an alias is. Select a DT at the Nyquist limit and produce the graph for this case. Discuss what you see in this case. Try a slightly smaller time interval than the Nyquist suggestion. Does this help a lot with the faithful representation of the signal?
