Abstract
In this paper, we extract variety of new exact traveling wave solutions of space–time fractional nonlinear Telegraph equation for transmission lines by using improved generalized Riccati equation mapping (IGREM) method. The aforementioned equation has been solved for the first time using conformable fractional derivative. The nonlinear Telegraph equation plays crucial role in the mathematical study of voltage and current on an electrical transmission line. In an effort to motivate the researchers, we have used very efficacious technique called IGREM method to find a variety of soliton solutions, in which appropriate conformable fractional wave transformation converts nonlinear partial fractional differential equation into nonlinear ordinary equation which is then solved to find the exact solutions of equation. Hence, we succeed in constructing rich solutions that include periodic wave, singular periodic wave solutions, dark, combined dark–bright and rational solutions. To investigate wave profiles of various solutions, 2D and 3D graphs have been explained. The originality of this work has been proved by comparing the obtained results with previously present results in literature. This method has substantial advantage over other methods that it can be used to solve higher order nonlinear PDEs, and this method allows to solve these equations more conveniently with the aid of mathematical software.
