3. Digital vs. Analog Representation “Quantized”Sound Wave Analog Sound Wave Digital Sample Original Sound Digital Sampling Digital Playback T.Sharon-A.Frank
Digital Signals • Only certain signal values are valid: • Relatively immune to corruption by noise. • Do not degrade when copied or transmitted over network. • Some information lost. • Undersampling • Samples 'too far apart' so cannot accurately reconstruct original signal.
Solutions Use Special Hardware (AD/DA) Use Standards T.Sharon-A.Frank
