DISPERSION-MANAGED SOLITONS IN MULTIPLE CHANNELS
Abstract
The dynamics of optical solitons, with dispersion management, propagating through a dense wavelength-division-multiplexed system with damping and amplification is studied. The adiabatic parameter dynamics of the solitons in the presence of perturbation terms have been obtained by virtue of the variational principle. In particular, the Gaussian and super-Gaussian pulses have been considered.
