内容記述 | Adaptive quantizer for burst-mode synthetic-aperture radar reduces data rate of return signal. Device, called block floating-point quantizer (BFPQ) basically analog-to-digital converter that covers wide dynamic range and discards appropriate lower order bits. BFPQ is, in effect, digital approximator with automatic gain control. Moves floatingpoint marker binary representation of signal data in accordance with perceived dynamic range. Available step sizes thus limited to multiples of underlying smallest quantization step (represented by lowest order bit). Retains only first K most significant bits of signal; (L,K) BFPQ is one that does K-bit quantization of signal originally quantized to L bits. Quantization error simply difference between actual signal level and its binary approximation. Other potential applications for BFPQ include speech compression and picture data compression. |
