A method for extended-pulse sampling includes providing a continuous-time signal comprising a frequency spectrum within a predetermined passband. The continuous time signal is sampled with a plurality of discrete sample pulses having a pulse shape in a time domain that is an impulse response of a filter having the predetermined passband. The plurality of discrete time samples of the continuous-time signal is then provided to an output.
