ABSTRACT
In this paper, we apply the (G′/G)-expansion method based on three auxiliary equations, namely, the generalized Riccati equation , the Jacobi elliptic equation
and the second order linear ordinary differential equation (ODE)
to find many new exact solutions of a nonlinear partial differential equation (PDE) describing the nonlinear low-pass electrical lines. The given nonlinear PDE has been derived and can be reduced to a nonlinear ODE using a simple transformation. Soliton wave solutions, periodic function solutions, rational function solutions and Jacobi elliptic function solutions are obtained. Comparing our new solutions obtained in this paper with the well-known solutions is given. Furthermore, plotting 2D and 3D graphics of the exact solutions is shown.
1. Introduction
In the recent years, investigations of exact solutions to nonlinear PDEs play an important role in the study of nonlinear physical phenomena in such as fluid mechanics, hydrodynamics, optics, plasma physics, solid state physics, biology and so on. Several methods for finding the exact solutions to nonlinear equations in mathematical physics have been presented, such as the inverse scattering method [Citation1], the Hirota bilinear transform method [Citation2], the truncated Painlevé expansion method [Citation3,Citation4], the Bäcklund transform method [Citation5,Citation6], the exp-function method [Citation7–9], the tanh-function method [Citation10–12], the Jacobi elliptic function expansion method [Citation13–15], the (G′/G)-expansion method [Citation16–20], the (G′/G,1/G)-expansion method [Citation21–23], the generalized projective Riccati equations method [Citation24–26] and so on.
The objective of this paper is to use the (G′/G)-expansion method with the aid of Computer algebraic system Maple to construct many exact solutions of the following nonlinear PDE governing wave propagation in nonlinear low-pass electrical transmission lines [Citation15,Citation27]:

Equation (1.1) has been discussed in [Citation15,Citation27] using a new Jacobi elliptic function expansion method and an auxiliary equation method respectively, and its exact solutions have been found.
This paper is organized as follows: In Section 2, the description of the (G'/G)-expansion method is given. In Section 3, we use the given method described in Section 2, to find exact solutions of Equation (1.1). In Section 4, physical explanations of some results are presented. In Section 5, some conclusions are obtained.
