DISCO: a graphical methodology for the design of Sigma-Delta modulators

TL;DR: A MATLABTM toolbox for the design and simulation of continuous time (CT) and discrete time Sigma-Delta modulators is presented and several typical non-idealities of CT Sigma- Delta modulators are simulated with a tremendously speed up via the application of the lifting approach.

Envelope Tracked Pulse Gate Modulated GaN HEMT Power Amplifier for Wireless Transmitters

TL;DR: The proposed transmitter architecture is developed using two high power 10 W gate modulated PAs combined in a fashion to operate as a switched voltage source for the range of duty cycles of pulses driving the gates of power amplifiers.

Potential Architecture for Future Generation `Green' Wireless Base Station

TL;DR: A novel approach which reduces bandwidth expansion on the envelope by 54% is proposed and a modulator is used to convert amplitude and phase information into the edges of a pulse train.

A continuous time delta-sigma modulator with reduced clock jitter sensitivity through DSCR feedback

TL;DR: The architecture has the additional benefit of reducing the typically high switched-capacitor-resistor DAC output peak currents, resulting in reduced slew-rate requirements for the loop-filter integrators.

High Order Bandpass Sigma Delta Interface for Vibratory Gyroscopes

TL;DR: Some high order SigmaDelta loop topologies have favorable noise shaping characteristics for electronic noise originating from the pickoff circuit and signal anti-aliasing and the requirements for the electronic circuits can be considerably relaxed.

A higher order topology for interpolative modulators for oversampling A/D converters

TL;DR: Higher order modulators are shown not only to greatly reduce oversampling requirements for high-resolution conversion applications, but also to randomize the quantization noise, avoiding the need for dithering.

Decimation for Sigma Delta Modulation

TL;DR: It is shown that digital filters comprising cascades of integrate-and-dump functions can match the structure of the noise from sigma delta modulation to provide decimation with negligible loss of signal-to-noise ratio.

An analysis of nonlinear behavior in delta - sigma modulators

TL;DR: This paper introduces a new method of analysis for deltasigma modulators based on modeling the nonlinear quantizer with a linearized gain, obtained by minimizing a mean-square-error criterion, followed by an additive noise source representing distortion components.

The Structure of Quantization Noise from Sigma-Delta Modulation

TL;DR: Simple algebraic expressions for this modulation noise and its spectrum in terms of the input amplitude are derived and can be useful for designing oversampled analog to digital converters that use sigma-delta modulation for the primary conversion.

A fourth-order bandpass sigma-delta modulator

TL;DR: The modulator of a bandpass analog/digital (A/D) converter, with 63 dB signal/noise for broadcast AM bandwidth signals centered at 455 kHz, has been implemented by modifying a commercial digital-audio sigma-delta ( Sigma Delta ) converter.
