A Background Calibration Method for DAC Mismatch Correction in Multibit Sigma-Delta Modulators

Pierre-André Farine, Steve Tanner, Shafqat Ali

A topology for the calibration of DAC errors in multi-bit sigma delta modulators is presented. The proposed technique enables the calibration to proceed in the background. In this technique, two DACs are used in a time-interleaved fashion. One DAC is calib ...

Reducing spurious PLL tones in spectrum sensing architectures

Ali H. Sayed

In a non-ideal PLL circuit, leakage of the reference signal into the control line produces spurious tones. When the distorted PLL signal is used in an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), it creates spurious tones in the sampled data as well. In spectrum sen ...

Frequency domain compensation of spurious sidebands in A/D circuits

Ali H. Sayed

In a non-ideal PLL circuit, leakage of the reference signal into the control line produces spurious tones. When the distorted PLL signal is used as a clock signal, it creates spurious tones in the sampled data. Our prior work used a training signal to esti ...

Digital Suppression of Spurious PLL Tones in A/D Converters

Ali H. Sayed

In a nonideal PLL circuit, leakage of the reference signal into the control line produces spurious tones. When the distorted PLL signal is used in an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), it injects the spurious tones into the sampled data. These distortions ...

Sensing and Recovery under Sparsity Constraints

Ali Hormati

Popular transforms, like the discrete cosine transform or the wavelet transform, owe their success to the fact that they promote sparsity. These transforms are capable of extracting the structure of a large class of signals and representing them by a few t ...

Sampling clock jitter estimation and compensation in ADC circuits

Ali H. Sayed

Clock timing jitters refer to random perturbations in the sampling time in analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The perturbations are caused by circuit imperfections in the sampling clock. This paper analyzes the effect of sampling clock jitter on the acqu ...

Distributed Sampling of Signals Linked by Sparse Filtering: Theory and Applications

Martin Vetterli, Olivier Roy, Yue Lu, Ali Hormati

We study the distributed sampling and centralized reconstruction of two correlated signals, modeled as the input and output of an unknown sparse filtering operation. This is akin to a Slepian-Wolf setup, but in the sampling rather than the lossless compres ...

Continuous-Time AR Model Identification: Does Sampling Rate Really Matter?

Michaël Unser, Hagay Kirshner, Simona Maggio

We address the problem of identifying continuous-time auto regressive (CAR) models from sampled data. The exponential nature of CAR autocorrelation functions is taken into account by means of exponential B-splines modelling, allowing one to associate the a ...
