Finite wordlength implementation of a megachannel digital spectrum analyzer
Abstract
The results of an extensive system analysis of the megachannel spectrum analyzer currently being developed for use in various applications of the Deep Space Network are presented. The intent of this analysis is to quantify the effects of digital quantization errors on system performance. The results of this analysis provide useful guidelines for choosing various system design parameters to enhance system performance.
