<![CDATA[Delta Modulation Systems are widely used in Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) systems. This research aims to determine the optimal delta step size that can be achieved in a Delta Modulation system, as the system's performance is highly influenced by the delta step size. The method used involves simulations with MATLAB to identify the optimal delta step value. The performance of a Delta Modulation system is greatly influenced by the Delta step size. The optimal value in this study was achieved at a Delta step size of 0.4 with the smallest error, namely MSE = 0.1186. If the Delta step size is smaller or larger than this optimal value, the MSE increases. When the frequency of the input signal increases, the Delta step size needs to be increased to follow the changes in the input signal. Otherwise, the MSE will also increase, a phenomenon known as Slope-overload Distortion. Granular Noise occurs when the input signal changes very slowly or is almost constant, while the step size is too large, resulting in a high MSE. To overcome this problem, a dynamic Delta step size is needed, adjusted to the frequency changes of the input signal. Such a system with a dynamic Delta step size is known as Adaptive Delta Modulation.]]>
