From: ARod4594 on 21 Mar 2010 09:12 This is kind of a basic question but i am trying to figure out what the relation between the normalized frequency of a discrete frequency and one with zeros inserted between samples. For instance an analog signal sampled at a rate of 30 KHz, consisting of 3 sinusoid frequencies, 5.3Khz, 6.4 Khz, and 2.58 Khz. The normalized frequency would just be F/Fs (I belive)? But using the same samples and adding zeros between, what would be the new normalized frequency with the zero insertion?

You mean upsampled by a factor 2?

By adding the zeros between (i.e. so that the new signal goes [x_0 0 x_1 0 x_2 0 ...]) you are upsampling (in and exceedingly crude sort of way). So your new sampling frequency is Fs = 60Hz, and you calculate your new normalized frequency from that. Not that without any follow-on filtering that's a _really bad_ way to upsample. -- Tim Wescott Control system and signal processing consulting www.wescottdesign.com
