Collision of Nonlinear Envelope Pulses Developed in Composite Right- and Left- Handed Transmission Lines Periodically Loaded with Schottky Varactors
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate numerically the collision of nonlinear envelope pulses in composite rightand left-handed transmission lines with regularly spaced Schottky varactors. Because of the nonlinearity caused by the Schottky varactors, the dispersive distortion of envelope pulses is well compensated. We find that when two nonlinear envelope pulses traveling in the opposite directions collide, two envelope pulses are newly developed. The carrier wave frequency of the newly developed pulse is the harmonic of the colliding pulses that satisfies the phase-matching condition.

Properties of Envelope Pulses Developed in Coupled Nonlinear Composite Right- and Left-handed Transmission Lines
We investigate the properties of nonlinear envelope pulses developed in a coupled composite rightand left-handed (CRLH) transmission line with regularly spaced Schottky varactors. It is found that the dispersive distortion of the envelope pulses carried by each mode is well compensated by nonlinearity introduced by the varactors. In addition, we numerically observe that the collision of two non...

We investigate experimentally the collisions of nonlinear envelope pulses in a left-handed transmission line with regularly spaced Schottky varactors. By measuring the test line, we successfully observed that when two nonlinear envelope pulses traveling in opposite directions collide, two new envelope pulses are developed. These new pulses satisfy the phase-matching condition, and their carrier...
متن کاملShort envelope pulse propagation in composite right- and left-handed transmission lines with regularly spaced Schottky varactors
Composite rightand left-handed (CRLH) transmission lines with regularly spaced Schottky varactors are characterized for propagation of short envelope pulses. Due to strong dispersion, a short pulse cannot travel on a conventional CRLH line without distortion. This distortion is compensated for by the effects of Schottky varactors such that the line supports solitonic pulses, whose pulse width d...
متن کاملDevelopment of solitons in composite right- and left-handed transmission lines periodically loaded with Schottky varactors
The characteristics of composite rightand left-handed CRLH transmission lines periodically loaded with Schottky varactors are discussed in relation to the development of solitons. CRLH lines are highly dispersive and thus, when appropriately designed, compensate the effect of nonlinearity introduced by the Schottky varactors to support solitons. The reductive perturbation method applied to the ...
متن کاملAmplification of short pulses in transmission lines periodically loaded with Schottky varactors
Pulse progagation on nonlinear transmission lines (NLTLs), which are transmission lines with regularly spaced Schottky varactors, is investigated for the amplification of short pulses. It is found that the soliton developed in an NLTL experiences an exponential amplitude growth, when it couples with a co-existing voltage edge.
