Abstract

A soliton is a unique wave that maintains its shape and constant velocity. It has been observed widely in natural nonlinear systems. In particular, a magnetic soliton has been observed experimentally on a nonlinear <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">LC</i> ladder circuit array. The aim of this article is to excite a magnetic soliton on the <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">LC</i> ladder circuit array using a permanent-magnet-flux-biased (PMFB) inductor. Electromagnetic analysis reveals that the PMFB inductor has exponential inductance characteristics due to the effective use of magnetic saturation in the stator core. Four PMFB inductors with different magnetic circuit topologies are analyzed and compared, to decrease the inductor current. Finally, this article numerically solves the loop equation for the <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">LC</i> ladder circuit array and shows that the magnetic soliton is successfully excited and propagates without changing its shape and velocity. This technique is equivalent to a rotating magnetic field and has a great potential in developing new ac motors or actuators.
