Abstract :
For original paper see ibid., vol. 50, no. 11, p. 2558-63 (2002). For comments see ibid., vol. 51, no. 4, p. 1296-8 (2003). The proposed algorithm is simple and accurate enough for some practical applications. The comments further prove that an incident wave having the duration of pulsewidth longer than the time needed for the wave to travel across the NLTL can be employed to characterize the impedance profile of an NLTL.
