Conference Paper

Noise Shaping for Linear Media

Authors: Wilson, Rhonda J.; Stuart, J. Robert

AES Conference: UK 9th Conference: Managing the Bit Budget (MBB) · Paper MBB-07 · May 1994

Abstract

This paper reviews the problem of quantisation, the use of dither to prevent quantisation distortion and noise modulation, and then discussed noise-shaping - a method which reduces the perceived level of noise due to the addition of dither by up to 18dB. A significant emphasis is placed on measurements and listening tests which can be performed to show whether a system has been correctly dithered and noise-shaped.
