Abstract A sampling criterion which provides a numerical relationship
between sampling rate and worst-case peak error for linear interpolation
of sample points is presented. The criterion, based upon the
second derivative of a waveform, is derived, its properties are observed
for a sine wave, and its applicability to complex signals is
discussed.
An approximate measure of the second derivative for an
amplitude-time function is implemented using a linear analog circuit,
and this device in conjunction with an analog computer is used to confirm
the validity of the sampling criterion. Possible application to
on-line variable-rate sampling control for data compression is discussed
in the conclusion.
