An Efficient State-Space Realization With Minimum Roundoff Noise Gain

This paper deals with efficient digital filter structures with roundoff noise consideration. Motivated by the direct-form II transposed (DFIIt) structure in rho-operator (rhoDFIIt) an alternative structure is obtained [Li in 2005, where, instead of the first-order rho-operators in rhoDFIIt, a set of second-order polynomial operators is used. In this paper, with the rounding before multiplication implementation taken into account, the equivalent state-space realization of the proposed structure by Li is derived and its roundoff noise performance is analyzed by deriving the roundoff noise expressions without/with error feedback consideration. This state-space realization can be efficiently implemented and has more degrees of freedom than its counterpart rhoDFIIt, which can be utilized to minimize the roundoff noise gain. A genetic algorithm is proposed to efficiently solve the optimal structure problem. Extensive examples are given to illustrate the advantage of this state-space realization and support the theoretical analysis
