Analysis of the Structure of Nonlinear Distortions at Baseband Pulse Impacts Using Behavioral Nonlinear Models of Electrical Circuits by E. V. Semyonov

“…It is shown that even parts of the nonlinear distortions at step impact, caused by individual physical nonlinearity factors, exceed the harmonic distortions of a RF-pulse signal.Conclusion. The considered method is particularly useful when designing wideband devices with feedbacks, since the nonlinearity of energy recirculation takes effect long after the visual end of the transient process.…”
