Abstract :
The behavior of transient signal propagation in lossless, isotropic, and homogeneous plasma is considered for a Gaussian pulse-modulated carrier. An approximate expression for the electric field is obtained. Both the amplitude change and the carrier-phase distortion are given in figures for various parameter values of interest.
