Abstract :
Sampling series expansions for functions (signals) that are bandlimited to N-dimensional rectangles (N ≥ 1) have been studied extensively; however, if a function is bandlimited to a general region in RN, not much is known about its sampling series expansion. In this paper, we derive a sampling theorem for functions that are bandlimited (in the sense of Kramer) to finite regions with smooth boundaries in RN. The sampling series expansions obtained for these functions are Lagrange-type interpolation series. Our technique utilizes Green′s function of the region involved. As an application of our sampling theorem, we obtain a new method for summing infinite series in several variables.
