quantization error
Quantization error refers to the difference or error that occurs when continuous analog signals are converted to discrete digital form. It arises due to the finite precision of the digital representation, resulting in a loss of information. The error is introduced during the quantization process, where the continuous signal is divided into discrete levels or bins. The magnitude of the quantization error is inversely proportional to the number of discrete levels available for representation, with lower levels leading to larger errors.
