Author :
Blair, Jerome J.
Abstract :
We show here that a wide class of nonlinearities in systems for measuring transients can be characterized as a delay that depends on the value and derivative of the signal being measured near the point at which it is being measured. Methods of measuring the delay as a function of these parameters are given.
