Abstract :
The simplest model of nonlinear response of a superconducting thin film is used for modeling the nonlinear phenomena in a superconducting transmission line and a microstrip resonator. The specified characteristic power of the transmission line is suggested to use as a fitting parameter for numerical description of the microstrip line nonlinearity at microwaves. Quantitative agreement of simulated and experimental data has been obtained for the incident power dependent transmission coefficient of a microstrip line section and a high quality microstrip resonator. Numerical results have also been obtained for the power of the third harmonic radiated from the nonlinear resonator
