1. In a process for determining intermodulation interference between two or more transmitters and one or more receivers, the steps of:

  • a) at each transmitter, determining a minimum susceptibility to interference of the one or more receivers;

    b) separately considering each transmitter as a victim transmitter paired with each other transmitter, and for each such other transmitter-victim transmitter pair, determining a highest order intermodulation product generated as a result of interference between the victim transmitter and the other transmitter with a power level sufficient to exceed the minimum susceptibility of the one or more receivers at the victim transmitter, and storing the highest order intermodulation product for each other transmitter-victim transmitter pair; and

    c) separately considering each transmitter as a victim transmitter, and for each victim transmitter determining the intermodulation products generated as a result of interference between the victim transmitter and all of the at least one other transmitters, each other transmitter having a leakage power to the victim transmitter, the one of the at least one other transmitters having the lowest leakage power to the victim transmitter being the minimum leakage transmitter for that victim transmitter, the minimum leakage transmitter and the victim transmitter together constituting a minimum leakage transmitter-victim transmitter pair, the intermodulation products for each victim transmitter being determined in this step up to the highest order intermodulation product determined in step (b) for the other transmitter-victim transmitter pair that is the same as the minimum leakage transmitter-victim transmitter pair.
