Energy-scaling characteristics of solitons in strongly dispersion-managed fibers

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We present an empirical scaling law that models the increased energy required for launching a soliton into an optical system with sections of both normal and anomalous dispersion fiber. It is shown that the inclusion of periodic attenuation and amplification can be handled as separate problems, provided that the interval between optical amplifiers is substantially different from the period of the dispersion map. These concepts are illustrated by reference to an example system comprising dispersion-shifted fiber combined with anomalous standard fiber.
