Some observations and thoughts

Signal Processing
Exploring Nyquist Frequencies
Non-real modulation
Investigations of aliasing effects in digital waveform sampling will show the existence of a pseudo-alias domain lying to the left of a "Nyquist line" in a plane defining the boundary between two domains of sampling. To the right of the line lies the classic alias domain. We discuss a problem with some band-limited signals below the Nyquist limit, when displayed output can also show a false modulation envelope whenever the sample rate and the signal frequency are related by ratios of mutually prime integers. An improved definition of the Nyquist frequency is proposed.
