sub-sampling

Sampling within samples. For example, dividing an NTSC pixel into three or four sub-pixels is an example of sub-sampling. Some ATV schemes use such pixel subdivision to transmit a high-definition image over a sequence of multiple fields or frames, with only one sub-pixel being transmitted per field or frame. The resulting potential artifacts include motion surprise and twinkle.
