Performance Tradeoffs in Disk Recording

Authors: White, James V.

AES Convention 49 · Paper 998 · September 1974

Abstract

Playing time, disk diameter, bandwidth, dynamic range, and overload probabilities are conflicting parameters for disk recording. A theory has been developed to predict the tradeoffs that are available among these performance characteristics for Gaussianly distributed program material. Practical implications of this theory are reviewed.
