Abstract
Apparatus and systems, as well as methods and articles, may operate to transmit an initial pulse to a directional coupler, where the initial pulse has an initial amplitude and a timed overshoot of a selected duration. Further activities may include stepping down the initial amplitude to an amplitude approximately equal to the initial amplitude times a mode reflection coefficient squared. A tuning stub may be coupled to a charge line to transmit the initial pulse, and decoupled from the charge line to refrain from receiving an echo pulse associated with the initial pulse.
