Spatial Antialiasing

The Problem of Aliasing

Aliasing is the phenomenon that occurs when signals are sampled and become interrupted and/or indistinguishable in its intended representation. The study of aliasing permeates throughout different areas of signal science in the digital world. Certain anti aliasing techniques have been implemented to mitigate the effect of this occurring. Spatial Anti Aliasing specifically deals with minimizing misrepresentation or visual distortion when viewing high resolution images at a lower resolution. This is mainly achieved through particular removal of signals which exceed the recordable bound of the sampling device.
