A continuous signal v0 (t) with theoretically unlimited bandwidth is to be transmitted via

a PCM (pulse-code modulation) channel. The first blocks of the PCM system are
an (ideal) anti-aliasing low-pass filter of cut-off frequency fc ,
a sampler with sampling rate fs described by v (t) = v1 (t) Ts
and
k= 0 (t kTs ),
a quantization, creating quantized samples from continuous-valued ones according

to a characteristic vQ (v) like, e.g., the ones sketched below.
