Decimation FFT Result

These are the frequency spectrums and the OP is seeing the effects of decimation (upper figure) and interpolation (lower figure). Note the frequency plots are the magnitude of the DFT result, so the left half of the spectrum represents the positive frequencies from $0$ (DC) to $F_s/2$ (where $F_s$ is the sampling rate) and the left half represents the negative frequencies from $-F_s/2$ to $0$ (nearly so, the bin at "0" only appears once as the first bin). We start with the spectrum in the upper left, which gets decimated to be the spectrum in the upper right. This decimated waveform is then interpolated as shown in the lower two plots recovering the original signal in the spectrum in the lower right. Imperfections in the interpolation filter result in the degraded noise floor in the final result (spectral leakage), suggesting the filter used was far from ideal for interpolation (especially given this isn't a log magnitude plot!).

Decimation by D is filtering the signal first to remove aliases at higher frequencies and then keeping only every D'th sample to result in a lower sampled waveform. Given the first (upper left) spectrum has no higher frequencies or was already filtered, and the result on the right is what would happen if only every 3rd sample was taken (2 samples removed between every 3rd sample.). Decimation without the filter operation is simply "Downsampling".

Interpolation by I is first inserting $I-1$ zeros in between every sample which creates 2 image replicas of the spectrum in between the original images (which is what we see happen in the plot on the lower left), which must then be filtered to complete the full interpolation operation (the filter if done right will grow those zeros to the ideal interpolated sample). Interpolation without the filter operation is simply "Upsampling".

I explain this further at this link along with how to design a better interpolation filter: The condition in order to not loose information after upsampling and downsampling

To understand these multi-rate concepts and how the aliasing occurs, it is very helpful to thoroughly understand how the frequency spectrum for sampled waveforms is periodic as explained in this post showing the A/D process and the resulting periodicity in frequency, starting with knowing that convolution in one domain is multiplication in the other: Higher order harmonics during sampling
