Convention Paper

The Effect of Idle Tone Structure on Effective Dither in Delta-Sigma Modulation Systems

Authors: Angus, James

AES Convention 112 · Paper 5619 · April 2002

Abstract

This paper clarifies some of the confusion, which has arisen over the efficacy of dither in PCM and Sigma-Delta Modulation (SDM) systems. It presents a means of analysing "in-band" idle tone structure and describes a fair means of comparison between PCM and SDM. It presents results, which show that dither can be effective in S-D systems.
