Harry Nyquist

Harry Nyquist (Nilsby (Zweden), 7 februari 1889 – Harlingen (Texas), 4 april 1976) was een Amerikaanse elektrotechnicus van Zweedse afkomst die van groot belang is geweest voor de ontwikkeling van de informatietheorie. Hij heeft belangrijk werk verricht op het terrein van onder andere thermische ruis en het digitaliseren van signalen (het bemonsteringstheorema van Nyquist-Shannon) (zie ook ADC).

Daar behaalde hij tussen 1912 en 1915 aan de Universiteit van North Dakota een BSc en een MSc in de elektrotechniek, en promoveerde hij in 1917 aan Yale University. Lees meer op Wikipedia
