Aliasing / Folding over

Top 2 plots (blue): sinusoid has (infinite) aliases, but its frequency does not exceed $ f_s/2$--GREAT!

\scalebox{0.8}{\includegraphics{eps/aliasfoldover}}

Bottom 2 plots (red): sinusoid with frequency $ > f_s/2$ will have a negative frequency component with an alias in the sounding bandwidth (shaded).
