The examples in this are very helpful to understand how the original signal can be reconstructed from a sampling. The reasoning and procedures to get the LPF would be good because it feels that it is just added, while the reason for the filter is important. The colors on the plots where really helpful but hard to see sometimes. The example of aliasing was really helpful to understand the need to have the correct Nyquist values.

The plots in this are very helpful and the colors are great! Some colors like yellow and green are hard to see though. The Nyquist violation example illustrates aliasing very well! Also good explanations with text. Good job!

I am very impressed with these concise graphs provided in this slecture. I can tell you try your best to do this work! You provide a great explanation for each section. Both simple and complicated examples guide others to understand the Nyquist rule. A good job!

I really like your MATLAB plots of the signals. The aliasing example is especially helpful. Each section has a great explanation, and the derivations are concise and clear. The only suggesting I have is that the reasoning behind applying a LPF could be more emphasized. Great job!

This slecture is organized very well. I especially like your notes at the end to clarify your examples. The graphs are high quality and show the amount of work you put into this project.


  • Review by Fabian Faes

I thoroughly enjoyed the usage of the graphs alongside very detailed explanations of what is being shown in them. I think the flow is natural and well planned and that the content is present in such manner that is easy to follow. Like previously mentioned some of the colors are hard to see but that is only a small drawback that that not impact the content. Great Job!

I am really impressed by your graph. It is clear and helps me understand the material much better. And the explanation after the graph is also detailed and logically states the concepts. Good job.


  • Review by Ryan Johnson

I really like your graphs. It definitely made your explanations easy to follow. The only thing I have is make sure the colors you are using show up well on the white background. For me personally, it was difficult to make out the light blue graph. Other than that, great job!!

Great job. The graphs look professional. I liked the example of the violated conditions.
