Lets consider the following logical questions: * Given a real world signal,
how do we select the sampling rate in order to faithfully represent the
signal in digital domain ? * Is there any criteria for selecting the sampling
rate ? * Will there be any deviation if the signal is converted back to analog
domain ? Answer : Consult the Nyquist-Shannon Sampling Theorem to
select the sampling rate or sampling frequency.

In the above figure, zone 2 is just a mirror image of zone 1 with frequency
reversal. Similarly zone 2 will create aliases in zone 3 (without frequency
reversal), zone 3 creates mirror image in zone 4 with frequency reversal
and so on In the example above, the folding frequency was at Fs/2=15Hz,
so all the components from 15Hz to 30Hz will be the alias of the
components from 0Hz to 15Hz. Once the aliasing components enter our
band of interest, it is impossible to distinguish between original
components and aliased components and as a result, the original content of
the signal will be lost. In order to prevent aliasing, it is necessary to
remove those frequencies that are above Fs/2 before sampling the signal.
This is achieved by using an anti-aliasing filter that precedes the analog
to digital converter. An anti-aliasing filter is designed to restrict all the

frequencies above the folding frequency Fs/2 and therefore avoids aliasing
that may occur at the output of the multiplier otherwise.
Note: Remember that both the anti-aliasing and reconstruction filters are
analog filters since they operate on analog signal. So it is imperative that
the sampling rate has to be chosen carefully to relax the requirements for
the anti-aliasing and reconstruction filters.
Our anti-aliasing filter has to be designed to strictly cut off all the
frequencies above 4MHz to prevent aliasing. In practice, ideal brick wall
response for filters is not possible. Any filter will have a transition band
between pass-band and stop-band. Sharper/faster roll off transition band
(or narrow transition band) filters are always desired. But such filters are
always of high orders. Since both the anti-aliasing and reconstruction
filters are analog filters, high order filters that provide faster roll-off
transition bands are expensive (Cost increases proportionally with filter
order). The system also gets bulkier with increase in filter order.Therefore,
to build a relatively cheaper system, the filter requirement in-terms of
width of the transition band has to be relaxed. This can be done by
increasing the sampling rate or equivalently the over-sampling factor.
When the sampling rate (Fs) is increased, the distance between the
maximum frequency content Fm and Fs/2 will increase. This increase in
the gap between the maximum frequency content of the signal and Fs/2
will ease requirements on the transition bands of the anti-aliasing analog
filter. Following figure illustrates this concept. If we use a sampling
frequency of Fs=8MHz (over-sampling factor = 4), the transition band is
narrower and it calls for a higher order anti-aliasing filter (which will be
very expensive and bulkier). If we increase the sampling frequency to
Fs=32MHz (over-sampling factor = 32MHz/2MHz=16), the distance between
the desired component and Fs/2 has greatly increased that it facilitates a
relatively inexpensive anti-aliasing filter with a wider transition band.
Thus, increasing the sampling rate of the ADC facilitates simpler lower
order anti-aliasing filter as well as reconstruction filter. However, increase
in the sampling rate calls for a faster sampler which makes ADC expensive.
It is necessary to compromise and to strike balance between the sampling
rate and the requirement of the anti-aliasing/reconstruction filter.
