I know about non-linearity a little bit.
For example: if we give sinx as input and if the output contains [sin(x)]^2 then obviously we have some other gain for different values of input and at the same time we have some higher frequency components.
Now I recently came across this "even and odd non-linearity".
if the output is o/p voltage= a + bx + cx^2 + d x^3 +....
Then we should not have even-order non-linearity but odd order non-linearity will not cause any trouble. For this to be satisfied I understand that terms like a,c,e.. should be zero.
If this statement is correct then there is no problem if the o/p voltage is = bx + dx^3 +...
How does this odd-order thing solve problem?
I just couldn't understand how odd order is better than the even-order.
Thanks in advance.
