SIGNAL MODEL BASED APPROACH TO JOINT JITTERAND NOISE DECOMPOSITIONWhite paper Version 01.00 Adrian Ispas, Julian Leyh, Andreas Maier, Bernhard NitschFirst published at DesignCon 2020

ABSTRACTWe propose a joint jitter and noise analysis framework for serial PAM transmission basedon a parametric signal model. Our approach has several benefits over state-of-the-artmethods. First, we provide additional measurements. Second, we require shorter signal lengths for the same accuracy. Finally, our method does not rely on specific symbolsequences. In this paper, we show example measurement results as well as comparisonswith state-of-the-art methods.AUTHORS BIOGRAPHYAdrian Ispas received Dipl.-Ing. and Dr.-Ing. degrees in Electrical Engineering andInformation Technology from RWTH Aachen University, Aachen, Germany, in 2007 and2013, respectively.

1 INTRODUCTIONThe identification of jitter and noise sources is critical when debugging failure sources inthe transmission of high-speed serial signals. With ever increasing data rates accompanied by decreasing jitter budgets and noise margins, managing jitter and noise sources isof utmost relevance. Methods for decomposing jitter have matured considerably over thepast 20 years; however, they are mostly based on time interval error (TIE) measurementsalone [1, 2]. This TIE-centric view discards a significant portion of the information presentin the input signal and thus limits the decomposition accuracy.The field of jitter separation was conceived in 1999 by M. Li et al. with the introductionof the Dual-Dirac method [3]. The Dual-Dirac method was augmented and improved overthe next two decades. Originally, it was meant to isolate deterministic from random jitter components based on the probability density of the input signal’s TIEs. It uses thefact that deterministic and random jitter are statistically independent and that deterministic jitter is bounded in amplitude, while random jitter is generally unbounded. Threeyears later, M. Li et al. reported that their Dual-Dirac method systematically overestimatesthe deterministic component [4]. Despite this flaw, modelling jitter using the Dual-Diracmodel has maintained significance in commercial jitter measurement solutions due to itssimplicity [5].Throughout the years, additional techniques were added to the original Dual-Diracmethod to separate additional jitter sources such as intersymbol interference (ISI), periodic jitter (PJ) and other bounded uncorrelated (OBU) jitter. For example, PJ componentscan be extracted using the autocorrelation function [6] or the power spectral density[7, 8] of the TIEs, while the ISI part of deterministic jitter can be determined by averaging periodically repeating or otherwise equal signal segments [13]. Yet another methodfor estimating ISI makes use of the property that ISI can be approximately described asa superposition of the effect of individual symbol transitions on their respective TIE [12].Once the probability density function of one jitter component is known, any second component can be estimated from a mix of the two by means of deconvolution approaches,as long as the components are statistically independent of each other [9, 10, 11].Collectively, over 40 IEEE publications and more than 50 patents can be found on thetopic of jitter analysis alone. Despite this, applications in industrial jitter measurementscommonly use a combination of the previously described methods [14, 15, 16], all basedsolely on TIEs.In this paper, we first introduce a parametric signal model for serial pulse-amplitude modulated (PAM) transmission that includes jitter and noise contributions. The key to thismodel is a set of step responses, which characterizes the deterministic behavior of thetransmission system, similar to the impulse response in traditional communication systems. Based on the signal model, we propose a joint jitter and noise analysis frameworkthat takes into account all information present in the input signal. This framework relieson a joint estimation of model parameters, from which we readily obtain the commonlyknown jitter and noise components. Therefore, we provide a single mathematical baseyielding the well-known jitter/noise analysis results for PAM signals and thus a consistentimpairment analysis for high-speed serial transmission systems.4

The horizontal and vertical periodic components ϵh,P [k] and ϵv,P (t ), respectively,are characterized by the amplitudes Ax,l , the frequencies fx,l and the phases ϕx,l forl 0, , NP(x) – 1 and x {h,v}, respectively, and Th,l [k] denotes the relevant point in timefor the horizontal periodic component l at symbol k. The terms ϵh,OBU [k] and ϵv,OBU (t ) designate other bounded uncorrelated (OBU) 1) components, and the random componentsϵh,R [k] and ϵv,R (t ) denote additive noise for the horizontal and vertical case, respectively.At this point, we do not impose any statistical properties on the random components.3 JITTER AND NOISE DECOMPOSITIONAs introduced in section 2, various effects cause disturbances in transmitted data. Thetransmitter and the channel have the most influence on the step responses that determine the data-dependent disturbance of the signal (intersymbol interference). Periodicand OBU disturbances make up the remaining deterministic and bounded components.Finally, there are random and unbounded disturbances such as thermal noise. Apart frombeing deterministic and bounded, very little information is available about OBU components at the receiver end. Therefore, we omit OBU components from now on. Theirinfluence will be visible in the extracted random components.3.1 Source and analysis domainsWith the exception of data-dependent components, all disturbances are either of horizontal or vertical origin. The horizontal components constituting ϵh [k] originate at thetransmitter, whereas the vertical components in ϵv (t ) may also be added in the channel orat the receiver end. The data-dependent components have their origin in the combinationof the data, i.e. the transmitted symbols, and the step responses that overlap to build thesignal. We thus define the source domain to be either “horizontal”, “vertical” or “data”.Analyzing the disturbances in the time domain is referred to as jitter analysis. Timingerrors with respect to a reference clock signal are determined and analyzed. This is usually done by means of the TIE. However, the disturbances can also be analyzed in thesignal level domain, which is referred to as noise analysis. In this case, signal level errorswith respect to reference levels are determined and analyzed at symbol sampling timesgiven by a reference clock signal. Fig. 1 depicts the definition of the TIE and the levelerror (LE). The choice between jitter analysis and noise analysis is a choice of the analysisdomain, which we accordingly define to be either “jitter” or “noise”.Fig. 1: TIE and LE definitionLESignal levelReference levelThreshold levelTIESampling timeClock timeTransition point1)6The word “other” in OBU refers to the nonperiodicity of the disturbance and the word “uncorrelated” to the nonexistence ofany correlation between the disturbance and the symbol sequence.
