7.4 Aliasing and Anti-aliasing Filters

Previous Next

Description

April 14, 2017

This video introduces the concept of frequency domain aliasing and describes how aliases are error sources that we want to avoid or minimize. It also covers how an anti-aliasing filter can be used to minimize these aliasing errors.
