Abstract

An analytical, numerical, and experimental study of the dispersion of a transmission line with negative group velocity is presented. The propagation of amplitude-modulated signals in the transmission line anomalous dispersion region is specifically analyzed, investigating the effects on the pulse reshaping of the system losses. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 51: 2627–2633, 2009; Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com). DOI 10.1002/mop.24688
