- Abstract:
- This paper investigates the statistical properties of quantization noise. In particular, a theoretical model is discussed, which evaluates the power of quantization noise introduced by a memoryless Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) as a function of both the converted signal distribution and the ADC thresholds positioning. Expressions have also been derived to express the Integral Non-Linearity (INL) contribution to quantization noise power as an additive term, and to evaluate such a term with a simple formula. Simulation results that validate the proposed expression are provided.
