Propagation with quadratic or higher order dispersion

1. Chirped carrier within pulse

Demo: closed up of chirped pulse

What we observe here is that the "red" portion of the pulse seems to be in front of the "blue" portion of the pulse. Another clear look is to plot the phase alone (without the envelope)

2. Chirped carrier separated from pulse envelope

Demo: chirped pulse analyzed: carrier and envelope

3 Instantaneous frequency within pulse

Demo: Instantaneous frequency of a chirped pulse

Listen to a chirped sound pulse
