Overlap resolution: continuous valued digits for hybrid architectures

A new redundant representation of signals with continuous valued digits enables introduction of more complex analog processing elements in a digital architecture. Continuous valued digits allow better utilization of the potential accuracy in VLSI technologies. The proposed processing methodology can be applied in an analog or in a digital system, and with either truly continuous digits, or with discrete valued digits. Coding and de-coding is relatively simple and robust. Overlap resolution signal processing utilizes residue-like arithmetic and opens up a powerful approach to parallel analog computations with digital accuracy.
