In the evaluation of the quantization error in two-dimensional (2-D) digital filters, a procedure for computing

is required. In this paper a condition for a finite quantization error is given and a discussion on the evaluation of the integral based on the residue method is presented. Examples for such an evaluation are given. Furthermore, the salient differences between the one-dimensional (1-D) complex integral evaluation and the two-dimensional one are discussed. Notation: We note with

-transform is defined as
