In this paper a method is presented to examine the necessary conditions for the existence of certain limit cycles in nonlinear sampled-data systems. The method is based on the principle of specifying a certain repetitive output from the nonlinearity and finding under what conditions this sequence will be sustained. Many examples are worked to illustrate the method.
