ANALYSIS OF SIGNAL NETWORK NON-LINEARITY IN A METROLOGICAL LABORATORY

Vaclav Papez, Stanislava Papezova

Abstract

Test signals that are used by high precise measuring have to contain minimum harmonic components of basic frequency. All non-linearity in electronic circuits may be sources of harmonic components in testing signals. Traditional methods and new method for the small nonlinearity measuring of electronic components and circuits are described in this paper. There are presented examples of measured intermodulation product levels on transmission lines components.
