Stabilizing soliton transmission by third-order dispersion in dispersion-compensated fibre links
TLDR
In this paper, the authors demonstrate that, for a fixed pulse width, there is a broad interval of values of the pulse's peak power in which TOD stabilizes the transmission, in particular when the mean second dispersion is (weakly) normal, and when TOD suppresses strong internal vibrations of the non-fundamental soliton.Abstract:
By means of systematic numerical simulations of pulse (soliton) transmission through a very long nearly dispersion-compensated nonlinear fibre link, including third-order dispersion (TOD), we demonstrate that, for a fixed pulse width, there is a broad interval of values of the pulse's peak power in which TOD stabilizes the transmission. In particular, TOD prevents decay of the pulse in the case when the mean second dispersion is (weakly) normal, , and in the case where , TOD suppresses strong internal vibrations of the non-fundamental soliton, making it close to the fundamental one.read more

Effects of third-order dispersion on dispersion-managed solitons
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of third-order dispersion (TOD) on dispersion-managed solitons are studied. And the authors derive a conservative bound on the magnitude of TOD below which it will not have a significant detrimental effect on the dispersion.

Competing four-wave mixing processes in dispersion oscillating telecom fiber.
TL;DR: It is revealed that the growth of higher-order sidebands is strongly influenced by the competition with cascade FWM between the pump and the first-order quasi-phase matched sidebands.

Dispersion management with filtering.
Anders Berntson,Boris A. Malomed +1 more
TL;DR: Analytical and numerical results for dispersion-managed solitons in a fiber link including guiding filters and compensating gain, both taken in the distributed approximation show the existence of a critical power for stationary propagation at any PAD.

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.

Dispersion-managed soliton interactions in optical fibers.
TL;DR: The energy-enhancement factor, together with the time-bandwidth product and the stretching factor, were calculated as a function of the difference in absolute values of accumulated dispersion in the fiber spans and the interaction strength of the dispersion-managed solitons was found to depend on the stretching factors.
