This is not useful information. It basically just rephrases the name of the
define without actually telling me anything.

I would expect to see here at least the following:

- what the DPCM abbreviation stands for
- a link or bibliography reference to the relevant standard (if there is any)
- a high-level explanation of what this do and what the difference is between
 simple and advanced.

If this is part of a video compression standard, then this control would 
probably
belong to the MPEG control class as well.
