Assuming our unit of type is the same [[Sampling|Sampling Interval]] (1 sample / unit time), the default samples are [[Discrete]] *ie.* [[Signal]] outputs are given at each sample time. So if the [[Signal]] was sampled from some analogue ([[Continuous Function|Continuous]]) [[Domain]] [[Signal]], then we have $X(t),t\in \mathcal{C}$ and $X_{t}=X(t T_{s}),t \in \Z^{+}$.

>[[CD Quality]] : $T_{s}= \frac{1}{44100}\pu{ \sec }$. Let $f_{s}$ and $\omega_{s}$ be the [[Sampling|Sample Frequency]] and [[Sampling|Sample Angular Frequency]]. With our unit time being our sample interval, the sample rate is $f_{s}=1$ eg. 1 sample per unit time.
[[Finite]] Impulse Response [[Signal Filter|Filters]], also known as "feed-forward filters", are used in real-time filters for high frequency sampling. Generally, these type filters take a few (relative to the sample rate) samples and combine them via a [[Linear Combination]].
Linear combinations are used as having a linear system means for any arbitrary [[Continuous Function|Continuous]] single $X(t)$ we can decompose it as a linear combination of [[Fourier Basis|fourier bases]].
