The problem of calculating the transient reflection from a two‐port network with a nonlinear resistor load is considered. The two‐port network (before being connected to the nonlinear resistor load) is described by some scattering kernels. Two intermediate kernels are introduced to obtain a relation between the reflected and incident signals when the network is connected to the nonlinear resistor load. This relation is then used to calculate the transient reflected signal numerically. Numerical results are presented. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 15: 113–116, 1997.
