Abstract :
This method for analyzing the effect of a limiter upon a signal is based upon a simple physical concept of the limiter and does not require the use of advanced mathematical techniques. The limiter is treated as a variable-gain device which amplitude modulates the input signal. Two examples demonstrate the new method.
