What I wrote on my Exam (and how many points I got)
I Wrote
The sampling theorem states that for a signal x(t) to be uniquely reconstructed, its X(jw) = 0 when |w| > wm, and the sampling frequency, ws, must be greater than 2wm
I got a 7/10 on this because I did not say what it is being reconstructed from. Also I used w because I did not know how to type omega in this file.
I Wrote
My Definition:
A signal can be recovered from sampling if
- The Signal is bandlimited and the Sample Frequency ($ \omega_s $) is greater than $ 2\omega_{max} $ (maximum frequency)
$ \omega_{s}>2\omega_{max} $
Recieved 9/10 Points because it is not clear if I meant $ 2\omega_{max} $ or $ \omega_{max} $ is the maximum frequency
I Wrote
My definition of the sampling theorem:
In order to sample a signal that can be recovered back into the original sample, the sampling frequency, $ \omega_{s} $ , must be more than twice the highest frequency of the signal, $ \omega_{m} $.
I got $ \frac{7}{10} $ on it because I forgot to say that the signal must be band limited.

The only way a signal can be perfectly reconstructed from its sampled version is if the original signal is band limited. It is sufficient (but not always necessary) for the signal to be sampled higher than its Nyquist rate (two times its $ \omega_m $ in order to be perfectly reconstructed. $ \omega_{sample}>2\omega_{max} $ sufficient for perfect reconstruction
I got a score of $ \frac{8}{10} $ because I did not define what $ \omega_m $ is.

My definition of the sampling theorem:
The sampling theorem states that any band-limited signal can ALWAYS be reconstructed from its samples without aliasing if the sampling frequency is greater than twice the highest frequency in the signal being sampled. Twice the highest frequency is not always required, but it guarantees a reconstruction that is free of aliasing.
