چکیده

AbstructThe statistical properties of the error in uniform scalar quantization have been analyzed by a number of authors in the past, and is a well-understood topic today. The analysis has also been extended to the case of dithered quantizers, and the advantages and limitations of dithering have been studied and well documented in the literature. Lattice vector quantization is a natural extension into multiple dimensions of the uniform scalar quantization. Accordingly, there is a natural extension of the analysis of the quantization error. It is the purpose of this paper to present this extension and to elaborate on some of the new aspects that come with multiple dimensions. We show that, analogous to the one-dimensional case, the quantization error vector can be rendered independent of the input in subtractive vector-dithering. In this case, the total mean square error is a function of only the underlying lattice and there are lattices that minimize this error. We give a necessary condition on such lattices. In nonsubtractive vector dithering, we show how to render moments of the error vector independent of the input by using appropriate dither random vectors. These results can readily be applied for the case of wide sense stationary (WSS) vector random processes, by use of iid dither sequences. We consider the problem of preand post-filtering around a dithered lattice quantizer, and show how these filters should be designed in order to minimize the overall quantization error in the mean square sense. For the special case where the WSS vector process is obtained by blocking a WSS scalar process, the optimum prefilter matrix reduces to the blocked version of the well-known scalar half-whitening filter.

Color Image Processing Using Adaptive Vector Directional Filters - Circuits and Systems II: Analog and Digital Signal Processing, IEEE Transactions on

A new class of filters for multichannel image processing is introduced and analyzed in this brief. This class constitutes a generalization of vector directional filters. The proposed filters use fuzzy transformations of the angles among the different vectors to adapt to local data in the image. The principle behind the new filters is explained and comparisons with other popular nonlinear filter...

New Clock-Feedthrough Compensation Scheme for Switched-Current Circuits - Circuits and Systems II: Analog and Digital Signal Processing, IEEE Transactions on

An improved clock-feedthrough compensation scheme for switched current system is proposed. Both the signal dependent and the constant clock-feedthrough terms are canceled by using both nMOS and pMOS current samplers and by adopting a source replication technique. The proposed current memory cell was fabricated with 0.6m CMOS process. Both experimental and theoretical results on clockfeedthrough...

Spectral Shaping of Circuit Errors in Digital-to-Analog Converters - Circuits and Systems II: Analog and Digital Signal Processing, IEEE Transactions on

Recently, various multibit noise-shaping digital-toanalog converters (DAC’s) have been proposed that use digital signal processing techniques to cause the DAC noise arising from analog component mismatches to be spectrally shaped. Such DAC’s have the potential to significantly increase the present precision limits of data converters by eliminating the need for one-bit quantization in delta-sigm...
