Abstract :
A composite right/left-handed delay line pulse position modulation (PPM) transmitter is proposed. This system, compared with conventional transmitters, exhibits the advantages of simple design, continuously tunable time delay and multiple order PPM capability. It is demonstrated by circuit and experimental results for both binary and quaternary PPM.
