The easiest way to generate RF based on this effect at low voltages is to use lines built with varying capacitance diodes (varactors). For applications in transmitters of pulsed radars and battlefield disruption systems, higher peak power is required, which can be achieved by operating NLTLs at higher voltages. However, in a high voltage environment because of the lower voltage breakdown of varactors, these devices must be stacked, which causes some constraints on the design of the lumped varactor diode for this application. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to address these issues showing some experimental results obtained with varying capacitance diode (varactor) NLTL prototypes. |
