Abstract
Signal aliasing in the digital identification of continuous systems is considered. Parametric identification methods are seen to be free of aliasing errors, provided that the poles of the continuous system are known to lie in specific s-plane regions. In the case of non-parametric identification, frequency response estimates based upon digital techniques are shown to be seriously distorted by signal aliasing. In particular, aliasing errors are shown to be phase sensitive and can therefore be controlled by suitable equalization of the relative phase of observed input-output signals.
