The '''sampling rate''', '''sample rate''', or '''sampling frequency''' defines the number of [[sample (signal)|samples]] per [[second]] (or per other unit) taken from a [[continuous signal]] to make a [[discrete signal]]. For time-domain signals, it can be measured in [[hertz]] (Hz). The inverse of the sampling frequency is the '''sampling period''' or '''sampling interval''', which is the time between [[sample (signal)|samples]].<ref>{{cite book | title = Communications Standard Dictionary | author = Martin H.

The concept of sampling frequency can only be applied to [[Sampler (signal)|sampler]]s in which samples are taken periodically. Some samplers may sample at a non-periodic rate.

The common notation for sampling frequency is <math>f_s</math> which stands for frequency (subscript) sampled.

==Sampling theorem==

The [[Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem]] states that perfect reconstruction of a signal is possible when the sampling frequency is greater than twice the maximum frequency of the signal being sampled,<ref>[[Claude E. Shannon|C. E. Shannon]], "Communication in the presence of noise", Proc. Institute of Radio Engineers, vol. 37, no.1, pp. 10–21, Jan. 1949. [http://www.stanford.edu/class/ee104/shannonpaper.pdf Reprint as classic paper in: ''Proc. IEEE'', Vol. 86, No. 2, (Feb 1998)]</ref> or equivalently, that the [[Nyquist frequency]] (half the sample rate) exceeds the highest frequency of the signal being sampled. If lower sampling rates are used, the original signal's information may not be completely recoverable from the sampled signal.

For example, if a signal has an upper [[Bandwidth (signal processing)|band limit]] of 100 Hz, a sampling frequency greater than 200 Hz will avoid [[aliasing]] and allow theoretically perfect reconstruction.

==Oversampling==

In some cases, it is desirable to have a sampling frequency considerably more than twice the desired system bandwidth so that a [[digital filter]] can be used in exchange for a weaker analog [[anti-aliasing filter]].
This process is known as [[oversampling]].<ref>{{cite book | title = Signals, Sound, and Sensation | author = William Morris Hartmann | publisher = Springer | year = 1997 | isbn = 1563962837 | url = http://books.google.com/books?id=3N72rIoTHiEC&pg=PA485&ots=GT7aaJK5vq&dq=over-sampling+digital-filter+audio&sig=0ZvXTWSZNb0E1Ugm0_qoF8z-Z7E }}</ref>

==Video systems==
{{refimprove|section|date=June 2007}}
In [[digital video]], the temporal sampling rate is defined the frame/field rate, rather than the notional pixel clock. The image sampling frequency is the repetition rate of the sensor integration period. Since the integration period may be significantly shorter than the time between repetitions, the sampling frequency can be different from the inverse of the sample time.
* 50 Hz - [[PAL]] video
* 60 / 1.001 Hz - [[NTSC]] video

When analog video is converted to [[digital video]], a different sampling process occurs, this time at the pixel frequency, corresponding to a spatial sampling rate along [[scan line]]s. Some common [[pixel]] sampling rates are:
*13.5 MHz - [[CCIR 601]], [[D1 video]]
Spatial sampling in the other direction is determined by the spacing of scan lines in the [[raster]]. The sampling rates and resolutions in both spatial directions can be measured in units of lines per picture height.

Spatial [[aliasing]] of high-frequency [[luma (video)|luma]] or [[chrominance|chroma]] video components shows up as a [[moiré pattern]].
