Abstract :
The authors describe how stationary waves traveling on nonlinear transmission lines can be determined within the framework of the harmonic-balance approach. A particular property of the given formulation is that sparse matrix packages optimized for the solution of harmonic-balance Newton update equations are not disturbed. The method is demonstrated for an LC line which supports the propagation of solitons of a well-known, analytically given form.<>
