Sampling below the Nyquist rate produces

  • A.A reduction in the signal-to-noise ratio only
  • B.A delay in the reconstructed signal
  • C.An increase in the bandwidth of the reconstructed signal
  • D.Aliasing of high frequencies

Answer: D

Under-sampling folds the spectrum, so components above half the sampling rate reappear as spurious lower frequencies that cannot afterwards be separated from genuine ones. That irreversibility is why an anti-alias filter precedes every sampler. A loss of signal-to-noise ratio is what quantisation causes. A delay comes from filtering or processing. And the reconstructed bandwidth is limited by half the sampling rate rather than increased.
