Abstract

In a DBS the average time for algebraic addition of complementary codes is reduced by comparison with addition in a PBS of inverse codes by (1/2)tauSgr and of complementary codes by (1/3)tauSgr.
The general time of addition in a PBS of inverse codes is 2tauSgr, and of complementary codes with superposition of the cycle of addition with the addition of the complementary unit, (11/6)tauSgr [1, 3].
In addition, in a DBS with equally probable appearance of numbers in a given array, taking into accoupt the exclusion of binary transitions with prohibited combinations, the time for addition of whole numbers is reduced by 2 l (n–1) tau and for numbers of a proper fraction by 2n(h–1) tau. This reduction of time amounts on the average to 10 or 15%.
Consequently, in a DBS the average addition time may be reduced by 20 or 30%.
The anticipated areas of use of a DBS could be in digital differential analyzers for automatic control and in various arithmetic chains of specialized devices where the main operation is algebraic addition.
