What does a predictor contribute to a differential coder?

  • A.A clock recovered from the incoming pulse stream
  • B.A companding characteristic matched to the signal
  • C.An estimate of the next sample from previous ones
  • D.A record of the errors made on earlier samples

Answer: C

The predictor forms an estimate of the coming sample from the history, and only the difference between estimate and reality is transmitted - the better the prediction, the smaller that difference and the fewer bits it needs. An error record, a recovered clock and a companding law are all other things. The decoder runs the identical predictor, which is why both ends must agree on it exactly and why a bit error can take a moment to die away. A single measurement chosen to respond to the one asymmetry beats several that respond to shared behaviour.
