Abstract

A tunnel diode non-linear transmission line has been investigated for second and third harmonic generation purposes. Design criteria are given and performance predictions have been obtained simulating the single diode behavior by means of a polynomial expression. An optimization of the non-linear transmission line as a harmonic generator has been obtained as a function of the number of diodes, their separation distances and the bias voltage.
