Abstract:
We examine the generation of low-frequency electromagnetic interference fields from the intermodulation of high-frequency electromagnetic interference fields at nonlinear electronic elements. The intermodulation effect itself can analytically be calculated by means of Picard iteration. Since the intermodulation effect represents a significant threat to sensitive electronic equipment it is outlined how this iteration procedure can also be applied to construct inverse systems that protect nonlinear analog circuits against low-frequency disturbances.
