Abstract :
A black box model is proposed to describe nonlinear devices in the frequency domain. The approach is based upon the use of describing functions and allows a better description of hard nonlinearities than an approach based upon the Volterra theory. Simulations and experiments are described illustrating the mathematical theory.
