Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why another book on sampling theory and analog-to-digital conversion? This book takes a linear system theory approach to analog-to-digital conversion. From linear systems theory, we introduce sampling theory and use the tools from linear system theory to prove Shannon's sampling theorem. Shannon's sampling theorem shows how an analog signal can be converted to a discrete time signal and how the original can be exactly recovered from the discrete time signal. Digital is an approximation to discrete time so exact reconstruction is not possible; however, practically speaking the reconstructed signal is identical to the original analog signal. Digital is more than just 1's and 0's. Digital technology is universal. Once data is in digital form, it can be converted from one digital format to another without any additional loss of information (excluding lossy data compression). We use linear system theory and the sampling theorem to derive the model for an ideal analog to digital converter. We derive performance metrics from the ideal model. The performance metrics are put to good use to illustrate how to test and evaluate an analog-to-digital converter. Applications motivate the reader to apply concepts learned. More complex applications lead the reader to an introduction to software defined radios. Appendices provide summaries of the sampling theorem, communications engineering units, transform tables, and ADC model. Chapter 1 begins by introducing the digital world. Money is used to introduce analog, discrete, and digital. Chapter 2 starts off with a simple description of linear systems. Chapter 2 takes the reader from algebra, calculus, differential equations, Fourier transforms, and back to algebra. We want the reader to have a basic understanding of signal processing. Linear system theory provides the tools to prove the sampling theorem in Chapter 3. A graphical proof and analytical proof of the sampling theorem are presented in Chapter 4. We show why wagon wheels turn backwards in Western movies. Chapter 5 covers the binary math, we need to work with analog-to-digital converters. Code examples are provided for the "software interface" for an analog-to-digital converter. A useful part of Chapter 5 is how to solve the problem of a signed 10 bit analog-to-digital converter connected to a 16 bit microprocessor. The ideal analog-to-digital converter model is developed in Chapter 6. Chapter 7 introduces some common analog-to-digital converters: flash, pipeline, successive approximation register, and delta sigma (ΔΣ). Performance metrics and testing of analog-to-digital converters are found in Chapter 8. Chapter 9 presents sampling and analog-to-digital conversion applications. Chapter 10 covers a brief introduction to analog-to-digital converter datasheets focused on software defined radio applications. Chapter 11 presents an introduction to radio receiver block diagrams and finishes with a short introduction to software defined radios. Chapter 11 completes the journey from linear systems, to sampling theory, to analog-to-digital converters, and then the most useful part, applications. We hope this book serves as a good stepping stone to more complex applications. As computer power continues to increase and costs continue to drop, new applications will be found for the future. Be part of developing the future. If you have any suggestions for improvements, or find errors please email the book author (see book preface).

Download or read book Nonuniform Sampling written by Farokh Marvasti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-11-30 with total page 954 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our understanding of nature is often through nonuniform observations in space or time. In space, one normally observes the important features of an object, such as edges. The less important features are interpolated. History is a collection of important events that are nonuniformly spaced in time. Historians infer between events (interpolation) and politicians and stock market analysts forecast the future from past and present events (extrapolation). The 20 chapters of Nonuniform Sampling: Theory and Practice contain contributions by leading researchers in nonuniform and Shannon sampling, zero crossing, and interpolation theory. Its practical applications include NMR, seismology, speech and image coding, modulation and coding, optimal content, array processing, and digital filter design. It has a tutorial outlook for practising engineers and advanced students in science, engineering, and mathematics. It is also a useful reference for scientists and engineers working in the areas of medical imaging, geophysics, astronomy, biomedical engineering, computer graphics, digital filter design, speech and video processing, and phased array radar.

Download or read book Algorithm of the Mind written by Stanislav Tregub and published by STANISLAV TREGUB. This book was released on 2020-08-08 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a clear physical definition of the Mind given in the previous volume of the “Symphony of Matter and Mind” series, the author begins to formulate a unified concept of the Brain and Mind which will be developed in this and subsequent volumes. All mental phenomena, from basic sensory-motor to higher abstract-verbal, are the result of neural encoding of the external world signals and internal bodily signals into representations constituting the model of reality for the purpose of controlling the body and adapting to this reality. Thus, any theory of the brain faces the question of the nature of the neural code which could explain the observed speed and efficiency, scope and complexity of the computational process that we call the Mind. The mainstream theories of neuroscience that consider neural activity as trains of discrete identical spikes (various firing rate coding and temporal coding models) contradict the reality of the information density of neural computing. That is why, despite huge efforts by generations of researchers, this approach did not lead to deciphering the neural code. We know the details of the neural processes down to the molecular level but the brain remains a ‘black box’ that we cannot read. It is the outcome of the wrong theoretical assumption that should be revised. The author creates the concept of a neural code that overcomes the shortcomings of old models. There is another problem that cannot be avoided by any theory of consciousness. It is not enough to say that the brain creates the psyche as this leaves an explanatory gap. We need to show how this physiological system generates mental phenomena physically. The Mind is a technological process that works according to a certain algorithm based on physical laws. The author’s theory offers a fundamentally new approach to the nervous system that bridges physiology and psychology by illuminating the algorithm and the physics of the Mind from the intracellular to the system-wide level.

Download or read book Delta Sigma A D Converters written by Richard Gaggl and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-17 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emphasis of this book is on practical design aspects for broadband A/D converters for communication systems. The embedded designs are employed for transceivers in the field of ADSL solutions and WLAN applications. An area- and power-efficient realization of a converter is mandatory to remain competitive in the market. The right choice for the converter topology and architecture needs to be done very carefully to result in a competitive FOM. The book begins with a brief overview of basic concepts about ADSL and WLAN to understand the ADC requirements. At architectural level, issues on different modulator topologies are discussed employing the provided technology node. The design issues are pointed out in detail for modern digital CMOS technologies, beginning with 180nm followed by 130nm and going down to 65nm feature size. Beside practical aspects, challenges to mixed-signal design level are addressed to optimize the converters in terms of consumed chip area, power consumption and design for high yield in volume production. Thus, careful considerations on circuit- and architectural- level are performed by introducing a dynamic-biasing technique, a feed-forward approach and a resolution in time instead of amplitude resolution.
