Title: Soliton quenching NLTL impulse circuit with a pulse forming network at the output

Abstract

An impulse forming circuit is disclosed which produces a clean impulse from a nonlinear transmission line compressed step function without customary soliton ringing by means of a localized pulse shaping and differentiating network which shunts the nonlinear transmission line output to ground.
