Scientific paper

In light of discrepancies seen in the literature (Fridman, 1983, and Gubanov, 1983), regarding signal-to-noise loss due to quantization of the fringe rotation function (FRF), related to very-long-baseline-interferometry (VLBI) signal processing, a more general expression is derived for the SNR loss, which validates a relation to the harmonic content of the FRF. Practical formulae are derived for calculating the SNR losses caused by quantization of the lobe rotation function in digital VLBI correlators. Examples are given for a few of the simpler rotation schemes.
