Envelope Modulational Instability in a Nonlinear Dissipative Transmission Line

  • Published:
Nonlinear Oscillations

Abstract

A bi-inductance LC circuit is considered, and the envelope modulation is reduced to the complex nonlinear Schrödinger (CNLS) equation. The Benjamin–Feir (or modulational, as it is sometimes called) instability for the CNLS equation is investigated to lead the Lange–Newell criterion.
