Signal-to-noise ratio in the output of nonlinear devices (Corresp.)
Dušan S. Zrnić · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 1975
Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in the output of a zero-memory nonlinearity is defined and found when the input is a complex Gaussian process. The results are applied to an odd u \primeth law device and to an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter exhibiting both saturation and quantization.
