Nonlinear transmission lines with ferrite have been actively developed and studied for about two decades. At the same time, the first works on this topic date back to the middle of the last century. Nonlinear transmission lines with ferrite find their application in various problems of electrophysics, with the greatest application being found in the problems of pulse sharpening, as delay lines and generators of high-power pulses of microwave radiation. The main scientific and technical results of the development of technologies of nonlinear transmission lines with ferrite are presented in chronological order, starting from lines for sharpening the fronts of voltage pulses, ending with multichannel microwave sources based on them.
