A pulse propagation through an ionized medium with respect to collisions is described by the equation \[ \frac {\partial ^2 E}{\partial z^2} = \frac 1{c^2} \frac{\partial ^2 E}{\partial t^2} + \frac {4\pi}{c^2} \frac {\partial ^2P}{\partial t^2}, \] where \(E\) is the electric field intensity, \(c\) is the speed of light, \(z\) is the propagation direction, \(t\) denotes time, \(P\) the specific polarization of the medium. For the free charge model \(P\) is described by the equation \[ \frac {\partial ^2 P}{\partial t^2} + \nu_{eff}\frac {\partial P}{\partial t} = \frac {e^2N}{m}E, \] where \(e, m\) denote, respectively, charge and mass of electron, \(N\) is the electron concentration, and \(\nu_{eff}\) is the effective frequency of collisions.
