Quantization

Main article: Quantization (signal processing)


If a signal is to be represented as a sequence of numbers,
it is impossible to maintain arbitrarily high precision - each
number in the sequence must have a finite number of digits.
As a result, the values of such a signal are restricted to belong
to a finite set; in other words, it is quantized.
