Abstract :
Novel generic frequency domain behavioural models are constructed for mixers and amplifiers. The modelling is based upon three concepts: time-invariant describing functions, linearisation and multidimensional curve fitting. The model parameters can be calculated based upon measured or simulated data. Model performance is illustrated on practical examples.
