Abstract :
The propagation of a rectangular envelope RF pulse in a lossless homogeneous isotropic plasma is considered. It is desired to produce pulse enhancement by an appropriate choice of the phase variation. A time domain technique is developed for choosing the phase. The resulting enhancement is greater than that reported previously.
