✦ Synopsis


Closed contours ill two dimensions are approximated by h~rmonioally related rotating vectors wi~h elliptical loci. Aa easy to use method for determining the number of vectom needed in the approximation is given. Specification of b~ndwidtb_ requirements for transmission of ,~ contour, either continuous or quantized, can then be made in terms of the desired accuracy of reproduction. The technique has application to graphics and pattern recognition problems.
