SAMPLE RATE CONVERTER

摘要

Sample rate converters are known, and are used to convert a signal with a first sample rate (sampling frequency) into a signal with a second sample rate (sampling frequency). To obtain a flexible sample rate converter with sampling frequencies that are not known beforehand, until now only sample rate converters with very high intermediate sampling frequencies are known. The invention provides a flexible sample rate converter, which is able to handle unknown input and output sampling frequencies. This is achieved by using polyphase decomposition filter means in combination with interpolation means.
