“…In [18], the effect of changing the parameters of an ML with broad-side coupling on the USP attenuation has been examined. The optimal meander line parameters ensuring the fulfillment of the conditions were obtained 2τel ≥ tΣ, (4) 2l|τe-τo| ≥ tΣ (5) where τe and τo are per-unit-length delays of even and odd line modes, respectively, and tΣ is the total USP duration. The fulfillment of condition (4) provides the arrival of the even mode pulse after the end of the crosstalk pulse, and (5) provides the decomposition of the main pulse into even and odd mode pulses.…”

For the first time, the paper considers in a unified work the possibility of the appearance of additional pulses in various structures based on modal filtration technology, which is used to improve protection against ultrashort pulses (USP). We analyzed meander lines (ML) with broad-side coupling, structures with modal reservation (MR), reflection symmetric MLs, and modal filters (MF) with a passive conductor in the reference plane cutout and obtained the following results. It was found that the main reason for the additional pulses to appear in these structures is the introduction of asymmetry (of the cross-section, boundary conditions, and excitation). It is theoretically and experimentally established that additional pulses are a new resource for increasing the efficiency of protective devices with modal decomposition, but the highest effectiveness could be achieved through careful optimization.

“…Conducted interference is dangerous because it penetrates into REE directly through conductors-for example, through signal conductors or through power circuits [4]. To solve this problem, 2 of 38 protective devices (for example, LC-and RC-filters, varistors, arresters, TVS-diodes) connected to the protected circuit are traditionally used.…”
