Abstract:Abstract-This paper deals with an extension of the Rosenstark's linear model of an amplifier to a nonlinear one for the purpose of performing nonlinear distortion analysis. Contrary to an approach using phasors, our method uses the Volterra series. Relying upon the linear model mentioned above, we define first a set of the so-called amplifier's constitutive equations in an operator form. Then, we expand operators using the Volterra series truncated to the first three components. This leads to getting two repre… Show more
