Gaussian, Hamming, and Hanning windows can be used to approximate a square
wave.

Adam.

Fourier analysis shows that anything like a square-wave, trapezoidal-wave,
triangular-wave, sawtooth-wave, etc. has frequency components going up to
infinity. Therefore, these signals are not band-limited.

The only kinds of signals that can be recovered from discrete samples are
those that can be constructed from a band-limited set of sinusoids.
Luckily, these include or approximate many useful real-world signals. The
highest frequency one of these is a sinewave at 1/2 the sampling rate.

Tom,
Thanks for the feedback. I know that the sampling
rate has to be at least twice that hight frequency
component in the signal. I.e to recover a 60 HZ
sinwave it needed to be sampled by 120sample/sec min.
How do we know a sine wave produced these samples not
a triangulare wave or other periodic wave form.

Thanks
