The analysis is based on the orthogonalisation of the nonlinear behavioual model that allows the accurate estimation of the effective in-band (or co-channel) distortion and hence determination of SNDR. Fundamental issues regarding the evaluation of the effective in-band distortion and its effect on digitally modulated signals are discussed. Simulations of in-band distortion and SNDR of WCDMA signals are verified experimentally using feed-forward cancelation.}, number={5}, journal={IET MICROWAVES ANTENNAS & PROPAGATION}, author={Gharaibeh, K.

The technique is based on the three-box approximation of the Volterra model and takes into account the dependence of the amplifier characteristics on frequency. The model is coupled with a new nonlinear statistical analysis, which enables accurate estimation of intermodulation and cross-modulation distortions of multiple digitally modulated signals. The model parameters can be obtained using simple measurements.}, number={5}, journal={IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON MICROWAVE THEORY AND TECHNIQUES}, author={Gharaibeh, KM and Steer, MB}, year={2005}, month={May}, pages={1682–1692} } @article{gharaibeh_steer_2003, title={Characterization of cross modulation in multichannel amplifiers using a statistically based behavioral modeling technique}, volume={51}, ISSN={["1557-9670"]}, DOI={10.1109/TMTT.2003.819195}, abstractNote={A statistically based modeling technique is developed for characterizing in-band and out-of-band intermodulation and cross-modulation distortions in multichannel amplifier environments. The model is based on a new multiple envelope memoryless behavioral model that captures the black-box characteristics of multichannel amplifiers.

By extension, any analytic functional operation on the signals can be performed in the frequency domain using matrix‐vector operations. The mathematical foundation of AOM is presented as a numerically efficient convolution‐like procedure in this article. It is directly applicable to the behavioral modeling of nonlinear RF and microwave circuits and systems. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
