| Jan 9, 2013 at 23:39 | comment | added | Tom Copeland | @Eremenko : the paper you cite in the edit is precisely the one in my answer. Why the repetition? Luke in the cited paper states, "The first scientist to formulate the sampling theorem precisely and apply it to problems of communication engineering is probably V. A. Kotelnikov." (1933) | |

| Jan 7, 2013 at 14:20 | comment | added | Alexandre Eremenko | You are right: the theorem was published by E.T. Whittaker many years before his son J.M. Whittaker included it in his book. | |
| Jan 7, 2013 at 5:18 | comment | added | Tom Copeland | Don't confuse the son J. M. (1929, and later in his book in 1935) with the father E.T. (1915) who is actually given the majority of the credit for a bandwidth analysis. (I guess you see what you look for.) If you're concerned about accreditation to Russians, you might want to confirm (or not) the chronology at the website linked to in my answer which notes Kotelnikov (1930), as well as other nationalities (Ogura, 1920). | |
