A-law algorithm: Regions & Standards

An A-law algorithm is a standard companding algorithm, used in European eight-bit PCM digital communications systems to optimize, i.e. modify, the dynamic range of an analog signal for digitizing. It is one of the two companding algorithms in the G.711 standard from ITU-T, the other being the similar μ-law, used in North America and Japan.
