Abstract: We present an analysis of the use of suprathreshold stochastic resonance for analog to digital conversion. Suprathreshold stochastic resonance is a phenomenon where the presence of internal or input noise provides the optimal response from a system of identical parallel threshold devices such as comparators or neurons. Under the conditions where this occurs, such a system is effectively a non-deterministic analog to digital converter. In this paper we compare the suprathreshold stochastic resonance effect to conventional analog to digital conversion by analysing the rate-distortion trade-off of each.
