Bandpass sampling theorem. For the case of two-band signals it is possible to
develop conditions under which M -fold decimation can be done without aliasing
(i.e., conditions under which the overlap described above does not occur). Suppose
the total bandwidth is less than 2 π/M and the bands are located as in Fig.
3.10(b). That is, the band edges are integer multiples of π/M. In this case it
can be shown (Problem 3.3) that M -fold decimation causes no aliasing. This is
sometimes referred to as the bandpass sampling theorem.

are disjoint, then the terms X ( e j ( ω− (2 π/M )) ) do not overlap for different values
of . Since a change of variables ( ω
ω/M ) does not affect this property, we
conclude that the quantities X ( e j ( ω− 2 π ) /M ) in the summation which represents
[ X ( e )] ↓M do not overlap. Such a signal x ( n ) can be decimated by M without
causing aliasing. Such a region
S
is called an alias-free(M) region.
