Abstract

The characteristics of nonlinear left‐handed (NL‐LH) transmission lines (TLs) are discussed for the first time. A LH‐TL with varactor‐diode series capacitance is analyzed in terms of dispersion and nonlinearity characteristics, and its voltage‐wave partial differential equation is derived. Numerical responses of the NL‐LH‐TL to harmonic and pulse waves illustrate the conjoint effects of frequency dispersion and nonlinearity. Potential applications are suggested. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 40: 471–473, 2004; Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com).
