Abstract
A simple approximate formula for the AM-detector transfer factor, which is valid for small-signal modes as well as for large-signal ones is proposed. This formula allows one to model analytically (or numerically at the behavioural level) an AM-detector in the large-signal and small-signal modes taking into account the nonlinearity of its transfer factor. Formula validation is made by comparison with measurements and PSPICE simulation data
