Abstract :
This article presents a summary of methods for the determination of non-linear products in cases when they are nondeterministic but depend on random parameters. When applied in the design of a cable television network, this method makes clear, through its results, the impact of non-linear products on the level of output voltages of backbone amplifiers. It allows quick selection of the optimum solution in accordance with the max/min number of transferred TV signals and the output voltage of the amplifiers.
