ABSTRACT:
An oversampling technique that improves signal-to-quantization noise ratio without requiring substantial amounts of processing power is disclosed. The oversampling technique determines the oversample values by successively scaling the previous value using a scaling factor. The effect of the invention is the randomize the quantization error for each of the oversample values so that the quantization error becomes uncorrelated from one oversample value to the next. When such decorrelation occurs, the quantization noise is spread over the enlarged frequency band associated with the oversampling. The invention is applicable to any transmission scheme which utilizes oversampling and digital-to-analog conversion.
