Signal Compression
Introduction Signal compression is a crucial part of designing multimedia applications in today's digital age. Signal compression can possibly be considered the backbone of modern technological activity. In this blog, we'll go over some of the most important concepts of signal compression before presenting some of its most important applications. But first, let's look at what signal compression is and why it's so important. Table of Contents What is Signal Compression? Why use Signal Compression? How is Signal Compression done? Examples of where Signal Compression is seen Conclusion What is Signal Compression? A signal is generally defined as a function of one or more independent variable(s) such as time, position, temperature etc.Signals generally convey information about the state and behavior of the system. Thus the main objective of signal processing is to preserve the information contained in the signal and extract or manipulate it when necessary. By formal def...
