Abstract
Dual-Ranging analog-to-digital systems create performance gains by exploiting the dynamic range of certain classes of signals. This thesis explores the improvements possible when using a dual-ranging system to gain resolution when digitizing audio waveforms. Experiments indicate between 3 to 6 dB of possible improvement, results comparable to gains attainable through other techniques.
