3.3 The Third-Order Volterra Circuit
The input of contains two components. The first component

Among them, only those at

Based
on these observations, we conclude that

In computing the input of the solutions of at and
at are needed. and therefore need to be solved at all
relevant side band frequencies with the output at these frequencies.
however, needs only to be solved with the input at specific fre-
quencies because only the response at the fundamental frequency
and that at the third-order harmonic frequency
are of interest.
