文摘In the present letters we study the propagation of smooth pulses in anomalously dispersive media. We prove that non-analytical but smooth points in a pulse still propagate with the vacuum speed of light, c. It gives an upper limit for signal velocity as well as the non-continuous points of the envelop of a pulse or its derivatives of arbitrary order do.
