The process of reducing aliasing effects. Aliasing occurs because a raster system is “discrete,” i.e., made up of pixels that have finite size. Representing a line with black and white pixels results in “jaggies,” or “aliases.” These are particularly disturbing during animation. To correct them, “anti-aliasing” techniques are used. These tech AM-VSB (Amplitude Modulation with Vestigial Sideband) – The form of modulation used in broadcast and cable television transmission. It is more efficient than dual-sideband amplitude modulation and is easier to implement than single-sideband amplitude modulation.
