Perfectly bandlimited characteristic functions -- B. General expressions of the moments of the quantizer output, and of the errors of Sheppard's corrections -- C. Derivatives of the sinc function -- D. Proofs of quantizing theorems III and IV -- E. Limits of applicability of the theory -- caveat reader -- F. Some properties of the Gaussian PDF and CF -- G. Quantization of a sinusoidal input -- H. Application of the methods of appendix G to distributions other than sinusoidal -- I.A few properties of selected distributions -- J. Digital dither -- K. Roundoff noise in scientific computations -- L. Simulating arbitrary-precision fixed-point and floating-point roundoff in matlab -- M. The first paper on sampling-related quantization theory.
Review: "If you are working in digital signal processing, control, or numerical analysis, you will find this authoritative treatment of quantization noise (roundoff error) to be an invaluable resource." "Do you know where the theory of quantization comes from, and under what circumstances it is true? Expert authors, including the founder of the field and formulator of the theory of quantization noise, Bernard Widrow, answer these and other important practical questions. They describe and analyze uniform quantization, floating-point quantization, and their applications in detail."--Jacket.
