Abstract :
For a suitable mathematical model of a logarithmic IF amplifier the signal suppression and intermodulation due to a second signal are found in closed form for a variety of cases. When at least one of the inputs is very strong the results agree with those for ideal limiting. In an appendix the assumptions underlying the mathematical model are examined. The approach presented is applicable to any bandpass nonlinearity.
