(More customer reviews)Pedro and Carvalho from University of Aveiro, Portugal, do a splendid job enabling decipherment of this complex topic via a non-trigonometric method, easily applied and well suited for computer simulation. The usual means of untangling mile-long equations, fishing out terms upon which trig identities are applied, spending massive amounts of time searching for errors made, all result in mental deformation. Instead their Euler approach makes the task quick and easy with time left over to actually test variations in the model to optimize for IM reduction. IM's (intermodulation products) result when multiple signals (two or more) mix with each other in nonlinear devices such as amps and mixers producing sum, difference, harmonics and replicas of the original frequencies (albeit at some other phase). The result - if not tamed - is a forest of tones confounding location of your desired signal. Important stuff in communications when regulations require your device not to interfere with bands next door (and moving ever closer) or you hope to acquire and track targets already close to the noise floor. Other phenomena like desensitization and blocking are also covered as are means to test for intercept points in hardware and a number of simulation model options. A valuable text for a little addressed problem in receiver design.

As electronic designers pack more and more circuits onto a single chip to create increasingly complex devices, they run into a daunting obstacle: intermodulation distortion. This distortion occurs when circuits are too closely placed together and their operating frequencies begin to interfere with each other. This manual addresses all aspects of intermodulation distortion. From the basics of circuit design, to cutting-edge techniques, it offers practitioners hands-on guidance for their challenging projects.
