The filter is a linear time-invariant (LTI) system that adds memory to the model. Combined with a memoryless nonlinearity, the filter allows to model non-linear systems with memory, unlike a pure AM-AM and AM-PM model, which models a memoryless nonlinearity. An ARMA-filter is the same as an infinite-impulse response (IIR) filter, which computes its output as a linear combination of weighted and delayed versions of the input and output signal. IIR filters need to be implemented by recursive structures.
