Frequency detector is a circuit that converts the frequency to a digital representation and finds its application in various fields such as modulator and synchronization circuitry. In this paper, a couple of first-order and second-order frequency discriminator structures are modeled and analyzed with their quantization noise sources. Also a delta-sigma frequency detector architecture is proposed. Through theoretical analysis and derived equations, the output noise is obtained, which is validated by simulation. The proposed all-digital frequency discriminator may be applied in the feedback path of the all-digital phase-locked loop.

The combination of both phase-shifting convolution and 2-bit quantization smoothing filter was used to reduce speckle noise from saw-tooth speckle fringes phase map, obtained in phase-shifting speckle interferometer. The phase-shifting convolution showed the noise reduction capability of speckle fringe without destroying edge information across 271 jump. Also, it was shown that the 2-bit quantization smoothing filter was superior to average, low-pass filter and median filter in speeding up smoothing process and enhancing SIN ratio. Finally, a path dependent unwrapping algorithm was used to unwrap a noise reduced 271 modulo speckle phasemap. semap.

We propose a number-theory-based quantized mathematical optimization scheme for various NP-hard and similar problems. Conventional global optimization schemes, such as simulated and quantum annealing, assume stochastic properties that require multiple attempts. Although our quantization-based optimization proposal also depends on stochastic features (i.e., the white-noise hypothesis), it provides a more reliable optimization performance. Our numerical analysis equates quantization-based optimization to quantum annealing, and its quantization property effectively provides global optimization by decreasing the measure of the level sets associated with the objective function. Consequently, the proposed combinatorial optimization method allows the removal of the acceptance probability used in conventional heuristic algorithms to provide a more effective optimization. Numerical experiments show that the proposed algorithm determines the global optimum in less operational time than conventional schemes.

In this paper, we present a residual filter to improve performance of H.264 compressed video. In general, noisy video sequences captured by imaging system result in decline of coding efficiency and unpleasant coding artifacts due to higher frequency components. By incorporating local statistics and quantization parameter into filtering process, the spurious noise is significantly attenuated and coding efficiency is improved, leading to improvement of visual quality and to bit-rate saving for given quantization step size. In addition, in order to reduce the complexity of the residual filter, noise induced by analyzing H.264 transformation and quantization processes are introduced. The simulation results show the capability of the proposed algorithm.

This paper studies a light emitting diode(LED) overlapping method of a head-up display that consists of a digital micro device(DMD) panel and a red, green, blue LED in order to increase the brightness of display system and optical output power. This optimization overlapping method removes a quantization noise which occur due to LED overlapping too excessive and stabilizes the junction temperature of LED. In order to reduce junction temperature of LED, the a correlation between a green duty and LED overlapping ratio is studied. Throughout this study, the brightness of head-up display exhibited high increasement ratio of luminance around 33.3 percent at 39 percent overlapping method.

A conventional image coder, such as JPEG, requires not only DCT and quantization but also additional pre-filtering under noisy environment. Since the pre-filtering removes camera noise and improves coding efficiency dramatically, its efficient implementation has been an important issue. Based on well-known noise removal techniques in image processing fields, this paper introduces an efficient scheme by adapting a noise removal procedure to block-based image coders. By using two-dimensional DCT factorization, the proposed image coder has only a modified DCT and a VLC, and performs pre-filtering and quantization simultaneously in the modified DCT operation.

The efficient representation and encoding of signals with limited resources, e.g., finite storage capacity and restricted transmission bandwidth, is a fundamental problem in technical information processing systems. Typically under realistic circumstances, the encoding and communication of message has to deal with different sources of noise and disturbances. In this paper, I propose a unifying approach to data compression by robust vector quantization, which explicitly deals with channel noise, and random elimination of prototypes. The resulting algorithm is able to limit the detrimental effect of noise in a very general communication scenario. In this paper, based on the robust vector quantization I have an experiment about speech coding.

Dealing with quntization error in a control system properly becomes much more important as many devices are connected through network and controlled. Thus, in this paper, we study a data rate condition on quantizer to achieve practical stability in a discrete time linear time invariant system with state feedback control. First, required data rate is shown to depend on eigenvalue of the closed loop system, the size of the initial state vector, the magnitude of initial quantization error, and control gain in the absence of process noise. It additionally depends on the maximum magnitude of process noise when noise is not zero. Asymptotic analysis shows that a new design method may be needed to reduce the date rate for a networked control in the presence of quantization error and noise.. We provide a simple numerical evaluation of uniform quantizer and logarithmic qunatizer to assess their characteristics of practical stability depending on data rate in the presence of noise.

The space-borne SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) system radiates the microwave signal and receives the backscattered signal. The received signal is converted to digital at the Digital Receiver, which is implemented at the end of the SAR sensor receiving chain. The converted signal is formated after signal processing such as filtering and data compression. Two quantization are conducted in the Digital Receiver. One quantization is an analog to digital conversion at ADC(Analog-Digital Converter). Another quantization is the BAQ(Block Adaptive Quantization) for data compression. The quantization process is a conversion from a continuous or higher bit precision to a discrete or lower bit precision. As a result, a quantization noise is inevitably occurred. In this paper, the impact of two quantization processes are analyzed in a view of SNR degradation.

Content adaptive watermark embedding algorithm using a stochastic image model in the multiwavelet transform is proposed in this paper. A watermark is embedded into the perceptually significant coefficients (PSCs) of each subband using multiwavelet transform. The PSCs in high frequency subband are selected by SSQ, that is, by setting the thresholds as the one half of the largest coefficient in each subband. The perceptual model is applied with a stochastic approach based on noise visibility function (NVF) that has local image properties for watermark embedding. This model uses stationary Generalized Gaussian model characteristic because watermark has noise properties. The watermark estimation use shape parameter and variance of subband region. it is derive content adaptive criteria according to edge and texture, and flat region. The experiment results of the proposed watermark embedding method based on multiwavelet transform techniques were found to be excellent invisibility and robustness.
