contents This paper presents results on the unboundedness and minimal speed of traveling wave solutions for a one-dimensional spatial reaction-diffusion equation with an asymptotically linear reaction term and a saturation parameter. By applying a Poincaré-type compactification, we reveal the full dynamics (including infinity) of the two-dimensional system of ordinary differential equations satisfied by traveling wave solutions. This yields essential information characterizing traveling wave solutions: the classification of trajectories in the phase plane, the positivity and unboundedness of front-type and sign-changing profiles, and the explicit form of the minimal speed. This paper examines a special equation with an asymptotically linear reaction term. While, our results differ from those of conventional linear determinacy. We claim that the minimal speed is derived from information at infinity within the traveling wave system.
