Digital Sin/Cos-Synthesis using the Chinese remainder theorem
=============================================================
A fundamental discussion upon the principles and drawbacks of
Direct Digital Synthesis about one and a half year ago on this
reflector inspired me to an investigation in this field.
A number-theoretic approach led me to a new synthesis that
in most cases is superior to classic DDS in three respects:
Spurious free dynamic range (SFDR), speed, and requirement of
memory.
This is not the place for a full discussion. But the principle
is simple:
In place of one single sin-table of length equal a power of 2
take a few cos/sin-tables of different prime-number-lengths
and use them for parallel cos/sin-generation with individual
phase accumulators. The analytical outputs then are all
multiplied.
The smallest frequency step is the sampling frequency divided
by all the table lengths. The Chinese Remainder Theorem
guarantees that all multiples of the frequency step can be
realized.
The Advantages are:
(1) There is no address quantization as in classic DDS.
(2) The table lengths is not a power of two which leads
to spurs in classic DDS at frequencies m*2^-n times
the sampling frequency (small integers m,n).
(3) The implementation on DSPs is extraordinary simple
and fast.
Example: Generation of the 17 tones of Jason at fs = 11025 Hz.
My choice of three cos/sin table lengths is: 29, 83, 599.
The frequency step then is 11025/29/83/599 = 0.007647 Hz.

On my old DSP56002 it takes 8 instructions per sample and
requires 2*(29+83+599) = 1422 words of memory for the tables.
The spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) for this implementation
in 24-bit-arithmetic is given in the table. It increases with
6 dB per additional bit to infinity because there is no
approximation. The kernel of the program to compute n4
samples by two complex multiplications of three complex
table lookups each is:
do n4,loop
mpy x1,y1,a ab,l:(r4)+
mpy x1,y0,b y:(r0)+n0,x0
macr -x0,y0,a y:(r2),y0
macr x0,y1,b a,x1
mpy x1,y0,b b,x0
mpy -x0,y0,a x:(r2)+n2,y1
macr x1,y1,a x:(r0),x1
macr x0,y1,b l:(r1)+n1,y
loop
That's in short.
