Abstract
A new type of nonlinear LC circuit has been introduced in order to investigate experimentally the propagation and interaction of solitary waves which is symmetric with respect to the inversion of voltage. A nonlinear capacitor in the shunt branch is composed of two diodes connected in series but inversely with each other. Both positive and negative solitary waves are stably propagated in the circuit. The velocity and width of a solitary wave deviate from the theoretical prediction, as the amplitude increases. This discrepancy comes from the fact that the dynamic response of nonlinear diodes is different from the static one. The phase shift resulting from a head-on collision of two solitary waves has also been observed.
