Abstract

En 中文
This paper presents a novel algorithm for intermodulation products counting in multicarrier systems. Intermodulation products are caused by the nonlinearity of the amplifiers' transfer characteristic. Along the transmission network, broadband amplifiers are needed to boost up the signal level and compensate the signal attenuation. When the number of carriers increases, the number of intermodulation products also increases extremely fast. In our approach, selective counting procedure by grouping intermodulation products was introduced. The presented solution shows considerable reduction in computational effort in counting the number of intermodulation products in the individual channel, especially if the number of products is very large.
