On mean-square aliasing error in the cardinal series expansion of random processes (Corresp.) |
| |
Abstract: | An upper bound is derived for the mean-square error involved when a non-band-limited, wide-sense stationary random processx(t)(possessing an integrable power spectral density) is approximated by a cardinal series expansion of the formsum^{infty}_{-infty}x(n/2W)sinc2W(t-n/2W), a sampling expansion based on the choice of some nominal bandwidthW > 0. It is proved thatlim_{N rightarrow infty} E {|x(t) - x_{N}(t)|^{2}} leq frac{2}{pi}int_{| omega | > 2 pi W}S_{x}( omega) d omega,wherex_{N}(t) = sum_{-N}^{N}x(n/2W)sinc2W(t-n/2W), andS_{x}(omega)is the power spectral density forx(t). Further, the constant2/ piis shown to be the best possible one if a bound of this type (involving the power contained in the frequency region lying outside the arbitrarily chosen band) is to hold uniformly int. Possible reductions of the multiplicative constant as a function oftare also discussed, and a formula is given for the optimal value of this constant. |
