  • Typed homework problem: let x(t) be a band limited signal with X(jw)=0 for |w| ≥ π/T. Part a asks for an interpolating function g(t) such that dx(t)/dt equals the sum from n=-∞ to ∞ of x(nT)g(t-nT). Part b asks whether g(t) is unique.

hxluo, you need to learn how to use LaTeX here so you can post math equations that we can cut, copy, or paste in our discussion with you.

i think there is a mistake in the question. it needs to read:

_________

Let x(t) be a bandlimited signal such that

[tex]X(j \omega) = 0 \quad \forall \quad |\omega| \ge \frac{\pi}{T}[/tex]
_________

i think the little t should be a capital T in the denominator of that fraction.
 
okay, you know about Laplace or Fourier Transformation, right?

[tex]X(s) = \int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} x(t) e^{-st} dt[/tex]

this is the same X(.) as in

[tex]X(j \omega) = 0 \quad \forall \quad |\omega| \ge \frac{\pi}{T}[/tex] .

and, from the nature of the problem, you know about the Nyquist/Shannon Sampling and Reconstruction Theorem, right? so if the differentiator wasn't there, how would you come up with an interpolation relationship for reconstructing

[tex]x(t) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} x(nT) h(t - nT)[/tex] ?

what is "h(t)"?
 
i just don't understand the concept of interpolation that much.
