Instead of sampling a function at a single point, average sampling takes the weighted sum of function values around the point. Such a sampling strategy is more practical and more stable. In this note, we present an explicit method with an…
We consider the reconstruction of a bandlimited function from its finite localized sample data. Truncating the classical Shannon sampling series results in an unsatisfactory convergence rate due to the slow decay of the sinc function. To…
