This article describes the basic methods of harmonic and intermodulation distortion measurement. The comparative merits of the systems are discussed and a table gives the relationship between the results which may be obtained in eacy system. The use of a wave analyzer to make these measurements is suggested and tables of typical results show the practical use of this method of measurement.
