We numerically performed a way to produce a supratransmission phenomenon in the Salerno equation describing the dynamics of modulated waves in a discrete nonlinear transmission lattice. For the natural supratransmission phenomenon, there exists a threshold of amplitude for which energy can flow in the line. We show that gap transmission is possible with driven amplitude below the threshold due to the collision of different plane waves coming from both edges of the line. One of the two plane waves has a frequency in the forbidden gap, and another has a frequency in the allowed phonon band. During collision, the wave in the allowed band is considered as a perturbation of the ones in the forbidden gap.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
