NAME
       cascade - Noise and distortion analysis for cascaded systems.

SYNOPSIS
       cascade [GNU style options]

       cascade file

DESCRIPTION
       The  cascade program analyzes the noise and distortion performance of a
       cascaded	system.	 The functional	blocks in the system are each  charac-
       terized by a gain and optionally	noise figure and third order intercept
       point.	In  addition a source with a particular	signal level and noise
       level may be specified.	Cascade	then calculates	the system noise  fig-
       ure  and	 input third order intercept at	each stage.  If	the source was
       specified, the signal level, carrier to	noise  ratio,  and  distortion
       level is	reported at each stage in the system.

       Cascade accepts the following options.

       --copyright    Displays copyright information.

       --version      Displays current version of the program.
