Multirate Signal Processing

Decimation, interpolation, downsampling, upsampling, antialiasing filter

Resample uniform or nonuniform data to a new fixed rate. Perform decimation and linear or higher-order interpolation without introducing aliasing.

Downsampling — Aliasing
Aliasing is the distortion that occurs when copies of a signal's spectrum overlap. Downsampling can introduce aliasing.
Filtering Before Downsampling
Filter before downsampling to mitigate the distortion caused by aliasing.
Upsampling — Imaging Artifacts
Upsample a signal and see how upsampling can result in images.
Filtering After Upsampling — Interpolation
Upsample a signal and apply a lowpass interpolation filter to remove imaging artifacts.
Simulate a Sample-and-Hold System
Simulate the output of a sample-and-hold system by upsampling and filtering a signal.
Resampling
Decimate, interpolate, or change the sample rate of signals, with or without intermediate filtering.
Change Signal Sample Rate
Change the sample rates of a sinusoid and a recorded speech sample.
Multirate Filter Bank Implementation
Implement filter banks using the upfirdn function.

Reconstruct missing data using interpolation, antialiasing filtering, and autoregressive modeling.

Resample a uniformly sampled signal to a new uniform rate; reduce the impact of large transients and remove unwanted high-frequency content.

Resample a nonuniformly sampled signal to a new uniform rate; apply custom filters to reduce aliasing; remove edge transients.

Use downsampling to obtain the polyphase components of a signal.
