FINITE WORD LENGTH EFFECTS IN DIGITAL FILTERS
PART A
1. Define 1s complement form?

In 1,s complement form the positive number is represented as in the sign magnitude
form. To obtain the negative of the positive number, complement all the bits of the
positive number.
2. What is meant by 2s complement form?

In 2s complement form the positive number is represented as in the sign
magnitude form. To obtain the negative of the positive number, complement all the
bits of the positive number and add 1 to the LSB.
3. Define floating pint representation?

In floating point form the positive number is represented as F =2CM,where is mantissa,
is a fraction such that1/2<M<1and C the exponent can be either positive or negative.
3.List the advantages of floating pint representation?

1.Large dynamic range
2. Overflow is unlikely.
4. Give the different quantization errors occurdue to finite word length

registers in digital filters?
1.Input quantization errors
2.Coefficient quantization errors
3.Product quantization errors
5.What do you understand by input quantization error?

.In digital signal processing, the continuous time input signals are converted into digital
by using b bit ADC. The representation of continuous signal amplitude by a fixed digit
produces an error, which is known as input quantization error.
6 .Define product quantization error?

The product quantization errors arise at the output of the multiplier. Multiplication of a
b bit data with a b bit coefficient results a product having 2b bits. Since a b bit register is
used the multiplier output will be rounded or truncated to b bits which produce the error.
7.Mention the different quantization methods available for Finite Word Length
Effects?
1. Truncation
2. Rounding
8.State truncation?
Truncation is a process of discarding all bits less significant than LSB that is retained

9. Define Rounding?
Rounding a number to b bits is accomplished by choosing a rounded result as the b
bit number closest number being unrounded.
10. List the two types of limit cycle behavior of DSP?

1. Zero limit cycle behavior
2. Over flow limit cycle behavior
11.Mention the methods to prevent overflow?

1. Saturation arithmetic and
2. Scaling
12. Give the different types of arithmetic in digital systems.

There are three types of arithmetic used in digital systems. They are fixed
point arithmetic, floating point, block floating point arithmetic.
13. What is meant by fixed point number?

In fixed point number the position of a binary point is fixed. The bit to the right
represent the fractional part and those to the left is integer part.
14.What are the different types of fixed point arithmetic?

Depending on the negative numbers representation, there are three forms of fixed point
arithmetic. They are sign magnitude, 1s complement, 2s complement
15.Distinguish between fixed point and floating point arithmetic
S.No Fixed Point Arithmetic Floating Point Arithmetic

1. Fast Operation Slow Operation
2. Relatively Economical More expensive because of
costlier hardware
3. Overflow occurs in addition Overflow does not arise
4. Used in small computers Used in large general purpose
computers
5. Small Dynamic Range Increased dynamic range
16. Express the fraction 7/8 and -7/8 in sign magnitude, 1s and 2s complement.

1s complement---------- (0.111)2
2s complement----------- (0.111)2
-7/8
Sign magnitude---------- (1.111)2
1s complement---------- (1.000)2
2s complement----------- (0.001)2
17. Draw the quantization noise model for a I order System
18. What do you understand by (Zero input) Limit cycle oscillations?

When a stable IIR filter digital filter is excited by a finite sequence, that is constant, the
output will ideally decay to zero. However, the non-linearity due to finite precision
arithmetic operations often causes periodic oscillations to occur in the output. Such
oscillations occur in the recursive systems are called Zero input Limit Cycle Oscillation.
Normally oscillations in the absence of output u (k) =0 by equation given below is called
Limit cycle oscillations
Y[k] = -0.625.y [k-1] +u[k]
19. Determine Dead Band of the Filter.

The Limit cycle occurs as a result of quantization effect in multiplication. The amplitude
of output during a limit cycle are confined to a range of values called the dead band of
the filter
20. Why Rounding is preferred to truncation in realizing digital filter?

1. The quantization error due to rounding is independent of type arithmetic
2. The mean of rounding error is zero
3. The variance of rounding error is low
21. Define overflow oscillations

The overflow caused by adder makes the filter output to oscillate between maximum
amplitude limits and such oscillations is referred as overflow oscillations
20. What is meant by sign magnitude representation?

For sign magnitude representation the leading binary digit is used to represent the sign. If it is
equal to 1 the number is negative, otherwise it is positive.
