A close connection exists between the BLTI approximation of an LTP system and classical FRF estimators.
Traditional FRF measurements underestimate the higher order Floquet resonances in LTP systems.
The dispersion of the cyclic variations is determined by the harmonic FRFs.
The geometrical interpretation of the BLTI concept leads to the technique of vector FRF analysis.
