equivalent-pcm noise
1Equivalent pulse code modulation noise — In telecommunication, equivalent pulse code modulation noise (PCM) is the amount of thermal noise power on a frequency division multiplexing (FDM) or wire channel necessary to approximate the same judgment of speech quality created by quantizing… …
2Noise shaping — is a technique typically used in digital audio, image, and video processing, usually in combination with dithering, as part of the process of quantization or bit depth reduction of a digital signal. Its purpose is to increase the apparent signal… …
3Pulse-code modulation — PCM redirects here. For other uses, see PCM (disambiguation). Pulse code modulation (PCM) is a method used to digitally represent sampled analog signals. It is the standard form for digital audio in computers and various Blu ray, Compact Disc and …
4Comparison of analog and digital recording — This article compares the two ways in which sound is recorded and stored. Actual sound waves consist of continuous variations in air pressure. Representations of these signals can be recorded using either digital or analog techniques. An analog… …
5Analog sound vs. digital sound — Analog sound versus digital sound compares the two ways in which sound is recorded and stored. Actual sound waves consist of continuous variations in air pressure. Representations of these signals can be recorded in either digital or analog… …
6Digital-to-analog converter — For digital television converter boxes, see digital television adapter. 8 channel digital to analog converter Cirrus Logic CS4382 as used in a soundcard. In electronics, a digital to analog converter (DAC or D to A) is a device that converts a… …
7Delta-sigma modulation — Delta sigma (ΔΣ; or sigma delta, ΣΔ) modulation is a method for encoding high resolution or analog signals into lower resolution digital signals. The conversion is done using error feedback, where the difference between the two signals is… …
8Laserdisc — Not to be confused with disk laser, a flat configuration solid state laser. Not to be confused with VCD, DVD, or Blu ray, optical disc formats employing digital video encoding. Not to be confused with CED, a coincident but incompatible analogue… …
9Video game music — Part of a series on …
10Audio bit depth — In digital audio, bit depth describes the number of bits of information recorded for each sample. Bit depth directly corresponds to the resolution of each sample in a set of digital audio data. Common examples of bit depth include CD audio, which …
