Abstract :
A general method is presented for determining not merely the output spectrum resulting from a nonlinear transformation of signals and noise but also the signal × signal distortion and intermodulation components, including their phases and their precise forms as functions of time. Recent work by Jain is thereby illuminated and generalized.
