Abstract :
This paper addresses the problem of designing quantizing systems employing dither. These are composed of a dither generator, a quantizer, a subtracting block and a low-pass digital filter. Quantitative criteria for choosing the parameters that influence the resolution and accuracy of the quantizing system are given, and the system performance is determined under worst, best, and average conditions for discrete binary, uniform, and Gaussian dither signals. The results presented also can be applied when the signal plus input-referred noise are quantized
