Sampling rate
A sampling rate is the number of observations or samples acquired, recorded, or retained per unit of time.
Learn Haskell by Example
Sample rate is the number of audio samples represented or processed per second.
- How it is used
- Sets the timing basis for generating signals and labeling exported WAV audio.
- How deep it goes
- Defines sampling rate, relates it to frequency limits, and implements rate-based sample-count helpers without array internals.
- Examples
- Uses 44.1 kHz audio, period and duration calculations, generated tones, and a WAV file containing four waveforms.
- What you can do after
- Build it from scratch by deriving integer signal lengths and writing matching WAV sample-rate metadata.
Digital Twins in Action
Sampling rate is the number of measurements acquired by a sensor per unit of time.
- How it is used
- Sets measurement frequency to capture changes needed for a digital twin’s monitoring decisions.
- How deep it goes
- Defines temporal resolution and works through selection by system dynamics, stopping short of a calculation procedure.
- Examples
- Contrasts four daily soil-moisture readings, hourly pool-pump power readings, and 10,000 Hz vibration monitoring.
- What you can do after
- Operate/configure it by choosing a rate that captures relevant changes without imposing unnecessary battery and maintenance costs.
