Nyquist sampling theorem
A law of sampling theory stating that if a continuous bandwidth-limited signal contains no frequency components higher than half the frequency at which it is sampled, then the original signal can be recovered without distortion.
If the signal is not sampled fast enough, aliasing will occur.
