Is resampling the same as upsampling?
Resampling involves changing the frequency of your time series observations. Two types of resampling are: Upsampling: Where you increase the frequency of the samples, such as from minutes to seconds. Downsampling: Where you decrease the frequency of the samples, such as from days to months.
What is the purpose of upsampling?
The purpose of Upsampling is to manipulate a signal in order to artificially increase the sampling rate.
Why do we Upsample a signal?
The purpose of upsampling is to add samples to a signal, whilst maintaining its length with respect to time. Consider again a time signal of 10 seconds length with a sample rate of 1024Hz or samples per second that will have 10 x 1024 or 10240 samples.
