چکیده

A 2-bit adaptive sigma delta modulation system that inherently eliminates the idle tones present in conventional and other adaptive sigma delta systems is described. The system incorporates both memory and look-ahead instantaneous step-size estimations and, as shown by computer simulation results apart from eliminating the unwanted idle tones despite dithering, it offers improved SNR performance and extended dynamic range.

The benefits of multibit chaotic sigma delta modulation.

Sigma delta modulation is a popular technique for high-resolution analog-to-digital conversion and digital-to-analog conversion. We investigate chaotic phenomena in multibit first-order sigma-delta modulators. Particular attention is placed on the occurrence of periodic orbits or limit cycles. These may result in idle tones audible to the listener when sigma-delta modulation is used for audio s...

Linearising Sigma-Delta Modulators Using Dither and Chaos

Recent work has shown that high-order single-bit sigma-delta modulators suffer from lowlevel artifacts such as idle tones and noise modulation. Techniques that have been proposed to reduce or eliminate these errors include the application of dither inside the one-bit quantiser loop, and selecting a loop filter which makes the modulator chaotic. This paper compares the efficacy of these two appr...

Tonal behavior analysis of an adaptive second-order sigma-delta modulator

This paper analyzes the tonal behavior of an adaptive second-order sigma-delta modulator, which was developed and published by the same authors. Idle channel tones, caused by non-white quantization error, is not desirable in applications where the human ear is the end receiver. Besides their relatively small magnitude tones in the baseband, most sigma-delta modulators produce high-powered tones...

Adaptive Delta-Sigma Modulation for Enhanced Input Dynamic Range

An adaptive delta-sigma modulator of 1st order with one-bit quantization is presented. Adaptation is instantaneous and based on an exponential law. The feedback signal is a multibit discrete-level signal generated by a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). Compared to a nonadaptive delta-sigma modulator of 1st order, the input dynamic range is significantly enhanced. The gain in dynamic range is 6...

Cascaded Feedforward Sigma-delta Modulator for Wide Bandwidth Applications

A new sigma-delta modulator architecture for wide bandwidth application called cascaded feedforward sigma-delta modulator is proposed in this paper. This sigma-delta modulator is similar to the conventional feedforward summation sigma-delta modulator. The conventional feedforward summation sigma-delta modulator uses multi-bit feedback and therefore a multi-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) ...
