  • Abstract
    This paper addresses the problem of defining, measuring, and evaluating linearity of memoryless, nonlinear devices with relatively narrow bandwidths. The analysis is based on the single-carrier transfer characteristic and leads to a definition of linearity in terms of a transform which is determined by the input-signal composition and the working conditions of the device.
