The analysis of the generalized-Gaussian distribution law was made. The amplitude characteristics of non-linear elements are calculated. A comparison of the effectiveness of pulse interference suppression was made. It is shown that the amplitude characteristics of non-linear devices should relate to the density of the noise distribution. http://pubs.sciepub.com/ajeee/8/4/5/ajeee-8-4-5.pdf non-Gaussian interference distribution law non-linear suppressors measures of maximum likelihood kurtosis
