A system for substantially eliminating nonlinear distortion, such as intermodulation products, introduced when a signal is processed by a nonlinear device. The system adds an out-of-band signal to an input signal to produce a combined signal having a power that substantially equals a nominal operating point power for a nonlinear device. Preferably, the instantaneous power of the out-of-band signal is adjusted by an automatic gain amplifier. The combined signal is input to the nonlinear device to produce an output. A filter processes the output of the nonlinear device to recover the information content of the original signal after processing by the nonlinear device. For example, if the nonlinear device is a power amplifier, the filtered output is an amplification of the input signal.
