A General Algorithm to Calculate Third Order Intermodulation - RF Cafe Forums

RF Cafe Forums closed its virtual doors in late 2012 mainly due to other social media platforms dominating public commenting venues. RF Cafe Forums began sometime around August of 2003 and was quite well-attended for many years. By 2012, Facebook and Twitter were overwhelmingly dominating online personal interaction, and RF Cafe Forums activity dropped off precipitously. Regardless, there are still lots of great posts in the archive that ware worth looking at. Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts. Here is the full original RF Cafe Forums on Archive.org

Greetings:

The link I used to have for a paper titled "A General Algorithm to Calculate Third Order Intermodulation Product Locations for any Number of Tones," by Chris Arnott, has disappeared from it's location on the CED website. So, I just scanned in and OCRed a copy provided to me by Chris back when I worked with him at RF Micro Devices. You can access it here:

Hopefully that will get you where you're going.
