1. A compressor circuit comprising two transmission lines AB and BC each of round trip transit time τ/2 and impedance Z connected to each other at point B with end C open circuit, and a switch S connecting point B to an output transmission line or load of impedance Z/2, wherein: with switch S open, a rectangular pulse of voltage V and duration τ enters the compressor at point A and propagates within the compressor for a time 3τ/4 after which switch S closes to connect point B to the output transmission line or load, generating a pulse of voltage V and duration τ/2 therein.
