Trigonometric interpolation of a sampled signal

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on trigonometric interpolation of a sampled signal using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Given N sampled points, the Fourier transform Xk is computed, with N/2 representing the Nyquist frequency and X0 as the DC value. To achieve M points, where M is greater than N, the inverse FFT is utilized for interpolation. The conversation also addresses the implications of dropping values from Xk and how to still achieve accurate interpolation of the original signal.

Given N sampled points, using the FFT we can get the Fourier transform of those N points Xk. With N/2 the Nyquist frequency and X0 the DC value. Using the inverse we can then get back the original function we just measured. However if we would like more points then just the N we have measured but instead we would like M, how can u use the inverse FFT to find the trigonometric interpolation? We can assume the N is even and that M>N. And wat if we would drop values out of Xk, how would you find a trigonometric interpolation of the original signal.
