Transcription de la présentation

  1. Waveforms, Sampling and Aliasing

  2. Introduction • For periodic waveforms, the duration of the waveform before it repeats is called the period of the waveform

  3. Frequency • the rate at which a regular vibration pattern repeats itself (frequency = 1/period)

  4. Frequency of a Waveform • The unit for frequency is cycles/second, also called Hertz (Hz). • The frequency of a waveform is equal to the reciprocal of the period. frequency = 1/period

  5. Frequency of a Waveform • Examples: frequency = 10 Hz period = .1 (1/10) seconds frequency = 100 Hz period = .01 (1/100) seconds frequency = 261.6 Hz (middle C) period = .0038226 (1/ 261.6) seconds

  6. Waveform Sampling • To represent waveforms on digital computers, we need to digitize or sample the waveform. • side effects of digitization: • introduces some noise • limits the maximum upper frequency range

  7. Sampling Rate • The sampling rate (SR) is the rate at which amplitude values are digitized from the original waveform. • CD sampling rate (high-quality):SR = 44,100 samples/second • medium-quality sampling rate:SR = 22,050 samples/second • phone sampling rate (low-quality):SR = 8,192 samples/second

  8. Sampling Rate • Higher sampling rates allow the waveform to be more accurately represented

  9. Nyquist Theorem and Aliasing • Nyquist Theorem: We can digitally represent only frequencies up to half the sampling rate. • Example: CD: SR=44,100 Hz Nyquist Frequency = SR/2 = 22,050 Hz • Example: SR=22,050 Hz Nyquist Frequency = SR/2 = 11,025 Hz

  10. Nyquist Theorem and Aliasing • Frequencies above Nyquist frequency "fold over" to sound like lower frequencies. • This foldover is called aliasing. • Aliased frequency f in range [SR/2, SR] becomes f': f' = |f - SR|

  11. Nyquist Theorem and Aliasing f' = |f - SR| • Example: • SR = 20,000 Hz • Nyquist Frequency = 10,000 Hz • f = 12,000 Hz --> f' = 8,000 Hz • f = 18,000 Hz --> f' = 2,000 Hz • f = 20,000 Hz --> f' = 0 Hz

  12. Nyquist Theorem and Aliasing • Graphical Example 1a: • SR = 20,000 Hz • Nyquist Frequency = 10,000 Hz • f = 2,500 Hz (no aliasing)

  13. Nyquist Theorem and Aliasing • Graphical Example 1b: • SR = 20,000 Hz • Nyquist Frequency = 10,000 Hz • f = 5,000 Hz (no aliasing) (left and right figures have same frequency, but have different sampling points)

  14. Nyquist Theorem and Aliasing • Graphical Example 2: • SR = 20,000 Hz • Nyquist Frequency = 10,000 Hz • f = 10,000 Hz (no aliasing)

  15. Nyquist Theorem and Aliasing • Graphical Example 2: • BUT, if sample points fall on zero-crossings the sound is completely cancelled out

  16. Nyquist Theorem and Aliasing • Graphical Example 3: • SR = 20,000 Hz • Nyquist Frequency = 10,000 Hz • f = 12,500 Hz, f' = 7,500

  17. Nyquist Theorem and Aliasing • Graphical Example 3: • Fitting the simplest sine wave to the sampled points gives an aliased waveform (dotted line below):

  18. Aliasing — Sound Examples • [i:33] sine wave with variable frequency, SR = 22050

  19. Aliasing — Sound Examples • Musical examples on the Bach trumpet: • [i:34] SR=22050, highest frequency in music is about 7000 Hz. (no aliasing) • [i:35] SR=11025 (some aliasing; adds a little metallic quality) • [i:36] SR=4410 (lots of aliasing; sounds like bad video game)
