Abstract :
The use of complex noise transfer functions for bandpass sigma delta modulation is described and compared with real transfer functions. For bandpass signals centered at higher frequencies, the use of complex noise transfer functions (NTFs) allows performance improvements over a modulator of the same order using real transfer functions. Results are presented that show the performance improvement possible using complex second order modulators
