What is Nyquist resolution?

Nyquist Sampling dictates that to optimally represent an analogue signal in digital space, the analogue signal needs to be sampled at least 2.3 times. In microscopy terms this means that the pixel size of an image needs to be at least 2.3 times smaller than the object that is being resolved.

How do you calculate Nyquist sampling frequency?

The frequency fn = 1/2Δt is called the Nyquist frequency. When spectra are presented for digital data, the highest frequency shown is the Nyquist frequency. For IRIS broadband seismic stations, Δt = 0.05 s, so the Nyquist frequency is 10 Hz.

What effect will happen if sampling frequency is less than Nyquist rate?

When the sampling frequency drops below the Nyquist rate, the frequencies will crossover and cause aliasing.

What is the Nyquist frequency for a signal?

The Nyquist frequency is the highest frequency that equipment of a given sample rate can reliably measure, one-half the given sample rate.

How much minimum sampling rate is required as per Nyquist theorem?

The theorem states that, if a function of time, f(t), contains no frequencies of W hertz or higher, then it is completely determined by giving the value of the function at a series of points spaced (2W)1 seconds apart. The sampling rate of 2W samples per second is called the Nyquist rate.
