1. amplitude distortion

   Amplitude distortion refers to a type of distortion that occurs when the output signal amplitude or strength varies in a nonlinear manner with the input signal amplitude. This can result in a change in the shape of the waveform, resulting in the production of harmonics or the alteration of the phase relationships of the waveform components. It is typically caused by the non-linear behavior of the signal processing system and can degrade the quality of the signal.

1. Amplitude distortion

   Amplitude distortion is distortion occurring in a system, subsystem, or device when the output amplitude is not a linear function of the input amplitude under specified conditions. Generally, output is a linear function of input only for a fixed portion of the transfer characteristics. In this region, Ic=βIb where Ic is collector current and Ib is base current, following linear relation y=mx. When output is not in this portion, two forms of amplitude distortion might arise ⁕harmonic distortion ⁕intermodulation distortion Due to the additional outputs, this form of distortion is definitely unwanted in audio, radio and telecommunication amplifiers, and it occurs for more than two waves as well. In a narrowband system such as a radio communication system, unwanted outputs such as X-Y and 2X+Y will be remote from the wanted band and so be ignored by the system. In contrast, 2X-Y and 2Y-X will be close to the wanted signals. These so-called third order distortion products tend to dominante the non-linear distortion of narrowband systems. Amplitude distortion is measured with the system operating under steady-state conditions with a sinusoidal input signal. When other frequencies are present, the term "amplitude" refers to that of the fundamental only.
