Sampling is a procedure, where in a fraction of the data is taken from a large set of data, and the inference drawn from the sample is extended to whole group. Sampling we can obtain a discretetime signal by sampling a continuoustime signal at equally spaced time instants, t n nt s xn xnt s. So the sampling theorem says that there is a way for a certain kind of signal. In particular, it would imply that the pixelsampling rate of 720486 is absolutely required to capture all the available.
The main goal of ad converter is to digitize the analog signals, which means to record and store the analog signals in numbers. Sampling and reconstruction of ntsc video signals at. We mostly neglect the quantization effects in this class. Signals that are bandlimited can be sampled in a way that preserves all the information.

This paper describes the analog video signals used in both broadcast and graphics applications.
The sampling theorem as we have derived it states that a signal xt must be sam pled at a rate greater than its bandwidth or, equivalently, a rate greater than twice its highest frequency. Sampling, by definition be it for digital or analog signals, is the process of selecting some samples of a signal, and then discarding the rest of it.
