Abstract

The application of narrow-band dither operating at the Nyquist frequency to provide improved signal-to-noise ratio performance over conventional dither is discussed, as well as the increased magnitude of narrow-band dither required to be equivalent to wide-band dither. Experimental data comparing the performance of conventional narrow-band dither signals operating at the Nyquist frequency to wide-band dither signals are presented.
