Conditions for stationary pulse propagation in the strong dispersion management regime
TLDR
In this paper, the analytical conditions for stationary propagation of a Gaussian pulse in a fiber with strong dispersion management were obtained using the variational method, and a good agreement between the two has been demonstrated.About:

Dispersion-managed solitons in fibre systems and lasers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors overview the field of the dispersion managed solitons starting from mathematical theories of Hamiltonian and dissipative systems and then discuss recent advances in practical implementation of this concept in fibre-optics and lasers.

Stable (2+1)-dimensional solitons in a layered medium with sign-alternating Kerr nonlinearity
Isaac Towers,Boris A. Malomed +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a variational approximation and direct simulations are performed to show that stable quasi-stationary (2+1)-dimensional soliton beams exist in these media (direct simulations demonstrate stable propagation over a distance exceeding 100 diffraction lengths of the beam).

Recent progress in soliton transmission technology.
TL;DR: The characteristics of the dispersion-managed soliton are compared with those of return to zero and nonreturn to zero pulses, and an in-line modulation scheme for up to 80 Gbit/s per channel and its two channel WDM transmission over 10 000 km is described.

Ultrahigh-speed long-distance TDM and WDM soliton transmission technologies
TL;DR: In this paper, the dispersion management plays an important role in increasing the power margin and dispersion tolerance of the time-division multiplexed (TDM) and wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) soliton transmission.

Variational approach to nonlinear pulse propagation in optical fibers
TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of nonlinear pulse propagation in optical fibers, as governed by the nonlinear Schrodinger equation, is reformulated as a variational problem and approximate solutions are obtained for the evolution during propagation of pulse width, pulse amplitude, and nonlinear frequency chirp.

Random walk of coherently amplified solitons in optical fiber transmission
James P. Gordon,Hermann A. Haus +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that amplifier noise causes a soliton's group velocity to undergo a random-walk process, which limits the system's product of length times bit rate, in one example, to about 24 000 GHz-km.

Enhanced power solitons in optical fibres with periodic dispersion management
TL;DR: In this article, the formation of stable soliton-like pulses in optical fibres with a periodic dispersion map was examined, and it was found that increased energy is required to launch a pulse of given width compared to the equivalent uniform fibre with equal path-average dispersion.

Averaged pulse dynamics in a cascaded transmission system with passive dispersion compensation
TL;DR: A theory of optical pulse propagation in cascaded transmission systems that are based on the dispersioncompensatingfiber technique is developed and the existence of two scales associated with fiber dispersion and system residual dispersion leads to a simple model for the averaged pulse dynamics.
