actually for radio-frequency (RF) mixing, the aliasing signals аге signals that сап
seгve as intermediate-frequency (IF) signals.
Alia5ing 15 а Mixing Effect
For using а sampling system as а mixer to provide ап IF signal, let's staгt Ьу
thinking about what happens when ап input signal matches the exact frequency
and phase of the sampling signal. Figure 15-5 presents ап example pulse-train
signal. For а sine-wave input signal of the samefrequency, see Figure 15-6.

the same phase and frequency.
