Abstract :
An assessment of a method due to Garber and Rozenvasser for constructing bounds on describing function method estimates of amplitude and frequency is reported for the autonomous case. A fundamental problem in applying the method is described. Attempts to improve the bounds and a general critique of the method are outlined.
