For the short answer: S/N is probably actually refering to signal to noise ratio (SNR) which is actually (S+N/N) signal plus noise to noise ratio. SINAD is Signal + Noise + Distortion to Noise + Distortion (S+N+D/N+D). SINAD (dB) = 20 log [Vsignal +Vnoise+Vdistortion/Vnoise+Vdistortion].
Hope this helps.

I wonder if the following derivation is correct?
Could someone give me some suggestion or feedback?
Thanks a lot!
THD = Sum(P_Harmonic) / Sum( P_Total)
THD+N = Sum(P_Harmonic) + Sum(P_Noise) / Sum(P_Total)
THD+N - THD = Sum(P_Noise) / Sum(P_Total)
if Signal is dominent, THD+N - THD = Sum(P_Noise) / Sum(P_Signal) = 1 / SNR
SNR = 1 / (THD+N - THD)
