Abstract

This paper proposes the design of a function generator for use in a Digital-to-Analog converter for DVD-Audio. The impulse response of the proposed function genera tor is a compactly supported sampling function of degree 2 that is expressed in the form of linear combination of quadratic B-spline function systems. To generate this impulse response, we design the convolution operator that can generate quadratic B-spline functions from the basis rectangular function. The convolution operator is realized by integrating delay, reverse, add, and integration processes, while the function generator is constructed by combining a set of these convolution operators suitably
