Study Notes
Digital Signal Processing
- Digital signal processing (DSP) involves manipulating signals represented in digital form.
- DSP offers benefits over analog signal processing due to its inherent advantages, such as accuracy, reproducibility, and flexibility.
Advantages of DSP
- Guaranteed Accuracy: DSP operations rely on precise binary representations, leading to accurate results.
- Perfect Reproducibility: Digital signals can be perfectly replicated, ensuring consistent performance.
- No Drift in Performance: Unlike analog components, DSP systems are less affected by temperature changes or aging, maintaining consistent performance over time.
- Greater Flexibility: Digital signal processing allows for dynamic adjustments and re-configuration of algorithms, leading to adaptable systems.
- Superior Performance: Digital algorithms can achieve levels of complexity and precision difficult in analog systems.
Key DSP Operations
- Convolution: A mathematical operation that combines two signals to create an output signal that represents the interaction of their shapes.
- Correlation: A measure of the similarity between two signals.
- Digital Filtering: The process of selectively modifying the frequency components of a signal.
- Discrete Transformation: A mathematical process that transforms a signal into a different domain, often used for analysis and processing, such as the Fourier transform.
- Modulation: A process that modifies a carrier wave using information from a signal, used for communication.
Basic Filter Structure
- LTI systems can be connected in two ways:
- Parallel: Overall transfer function is the sum of individual transfer functions.
- Cascade: Overall transfer function is the product of individual transfer functions.
FIR Filter Structure
- Direct form: Requires N + 1 multipliers, N adders, and N delays for an Nth order filter.
- Cascade form: Transfer function is factorized into second-order sections (biquads). This can be implemented with a series of biquad blocks.
IIR Filter Structure
- Direct Form I: Implemented by cascading a feedforward section (numerator) and a feedback section (denominator).
- Direct Form II (Canonic): Same as Direct Form I but with fewer delays.
- Cascade Form: Implemented with a series of biquad blocks, each representing a second-order section.
- Parallel Form: Implemented by summing the outputs of multiple first-order sections.
Quantization Error
- Digital implementation of DTS introduces quantization error to the coefficients in the difference equation.
- This non-linearity can affect filter system performance.
- Quantization error impacts IIR systems by changing the poles and zeros position, while FIR systems are primarily affected by changes in zeros.
Round-off Noise
- Round-off noise is introduced when quantizing values in calculations.
- Round-off noise can be minimized by using increased fixed-point word length or by adopting floating-point representation.
