- This is incorrect. If the sampling frequency is above twice the highest
- frequency, all the information is there to accurately reconstruct the
- original signal. However, to implement this you need a good low pass
- filter. Badly designed low pass filters may introduce phase distortions.
- Good filters are expensive. But if you have a DSP you can do oversampling
- which simplifies the needed filter. So buy a Falcon!!!
