    Measurement and Mitigation
    The principal metric for quantifying overall signal distortion in linear systems is Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), which measures the ratio of power in the harmonic frequencies to the power in the fundamental frequency.
    $$\text{THD} = \frac{\sqrt{\sum{n=2}^{\infty} Pn}}{P_1}$$
