Additional information

This paper presents a body of experimental observations related to the development of new technique of near-field probing of distributed PIM products on printed transmission lines. The visualisation of the effects of electrical discontinuities is presented. The near-field probing about a point nonlinear source has been performed for the first time, as well as the study of interference of two point sources. The paper concerns the application of the phase-synchronism model to describe the distributed generation of forward and reverse propagating PIM products. These observations significantly revised all pre-existing explanations of PIM production phenomenology.
