Sampling signal s(t) with fs = 2fm
The sampled signal at Nyquist rate and its FT are shown below. We can observe that the FT is the convolution of X() and S() which follows from the property that multiplication in time domain results in convolution in frequency domain.

Aliasing
When the signal is sampled at a rate less than Nyquist rate, the FT of the sampled signal contains overlapping of high frequency components which leads to distortion. This eect is called aliasing. Hence, in practise the sampling rate is always kept higher than the Nyquist rate.

Signal reconstruction
Sampling theorem states that if a signal is sampled at a rate higher than the Nyquist rate then the original signal can be reconstructed exactly without any distortion. This can be visualized from the below gure. If the signal is sent through a lowpass lter (represented by a box in the gure) then the exact signal is recovered.
