Abstract (en)

Sparseness is reduced in an input digital signal which includes a first sequence of sample values. An output digital signal is produced in response to the input digital signal. The output digital signal includes a second sequence of sample values, which second sequence of sample values has a greater density of non-zero sample values than the first sequence of sample values. <IMAGE>
