Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

Abstract

We present the results of numerical simulation of the complex dynamics of a nonlinear radio-technical line having reflections at the boundaries and excited by an external harmonic signal. It is shown that, with increase in the amplitude of the input signal, periodic oscillations at the external-forcing frequency become unstable and are changed to more complex regimes, either quasiperiodic or chaotic. The main scenarios of transition to chaos are studied. The influence of the modulation instability and soliton formation on the complex dynamics is discussed.
