Realization of IIR LDM Digital Filters

In this paper, we present a method of realizing an infinite impulse response (IIR) digital filter (DF)using linear delta modulation (LDM) as a simple analog/digital (A/D) converter. This method makes the realization of IIR digital filters much simpler than that of conventional ones because it does not require hardware multipliers and a pulse code modulation (PCM) A/D converter. Compared to the finite impulse respponse (FIR) LDMDF of Lee and Un [1] , this IIR LDMDF requires significantly less computation time.
