How can aliasing be eliminated? Explain.
Answer
Aliasing is eliminated by sampling above the Nyquist rate and using an anti-aliasing low-pass filter.
Aliasing (high-frequency components folding into low frequencies) can be eliminated by two main steps:
1. Anti-aliasing Filter: Passing the continuous signal through a low-pass analog filter before sampling to strictly band-limit the signal and remove frequencies higher than .
2. Nyquist Rate: Ensuring the sampling frequency is strictly greater than twice the maximum frequency present in the filtered signal ().
