  • Abstract
    For fixed and floating point number representation the different finite-wordlength effects in the fast convolution are described. Besides the rounding error, there exists another neglected error source. Due to coefficient quantization the behavior of the fast convolution FIR-filter becomes periodically time-variant. This leads to undesirable bifrequency transfer functions resulting in input signal dependent errors, particularly in the case of short coefficient wordlength where this error power outweighs the rounding noise power
