Abstract
A method of filtering frequency encoded imaging signals includes receiving the frequency encoded imaging signals in the time domain and demodulating the frequency encoded imaging signals. The method further includes upsampling the frequency encoded imaging signals by an integer upsampling factor, reducing the bandwidth of the frequency encoded imaging signals, and downsampling the frequency encoded imaging signals by an integer downsampling factor. The frequency encoded imaging signals are resampled by a resampling factor substantially equal to the integer upsampling factor divided by the integer downsampling factor.
