Baseband Distortion Equalization in the Transmission of Pulse Information

Abstract
Baseband equalization techniques are applied to the problem of correcting the response characteristics of subnanosecond pulse transmission systems. In particular, we describe a system used in the equalization of high-quality coaxial transmission lines. The fundamental aspects of the system, the channel characterization, network design, and subsequent realization are discussed in detail. Some experimental results are also presented that demonstrate the applicability of the system.
