Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for correcting for output distortion of an analog to digital converter, comprising: estimating the output distortion, providing an estimated distortion, and combining an output of the analog to digital converter with the estimated distortion to compensate for the output distortion. The compensating module for correcting output distortion of an analog to digital converter comprises a calibration module configured to estimate the output distortion and a combiner configured to combine an output of the analog to digital converter with the estimated distortion to compensate the output distortion.
Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for a nonlinear filter having a nonlinear transfer function. The nonlinear filter comprises a plurality of linear filters each having a filter output, a plurality of nonlinear elements each connected to one of the plurality of linear filters, and a combination network connected to the plurality of nonlinear elements. The nonlinear elements are used to produce nonlinear effects and generate a plurality of nonlinear outputs, and the combination network combines the nonlinear outputs.
