Nonlinear systems with periodic variations of nonlinearity and/or dispersion occur in a
variety of physical problems and engineering applications. The mathematical concept of …

Mode-locked fibre lasers are important sources of ultrashort pulses, where stable pulse
generation is achieved through a balance of periodic amplitude and phase evolutions. A …

This book provides a comprehensive account of fiber-optic communication systems. The 3rd
edition of this book is used worldwide as a textbook in many universities. This 4th edition …

The current research into solitons and their use in fiber optic communications is very
important to the future of communications. Since the advent of computer networking and …

The field of nonlinear dispersive waves has developed enormously since the work of Stokes,
Boussinesq and Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) in the nineteenth century. In the 1960s …

Applications of Nonlinear Fiber Optics, Third Edition presents sound coverage of the
fundamentals of lightwave technology, along with material on pulse compression techniques …

The concept of an average soliton has proved useful in understanding stable propagation of
picosecond solitons in the presence of periodical gain or loss.[1–3] In this model …

We investigate ultrashort pulse generation based on the fundamental soliton generation that
is stabilized by a saturable absorber. The case of an absorber with a recovery time much …

The authors propose a communication method for a nonlinear and dispersive medium such
as an optical fiber that is based on eigenvalues of associated equations for the wave …

For a relatively long optical pulse in a fiber with a dispersion distance z_0 much larger than
the loss distance, a soliton cannot exist in an ideal sense. However, with a proper choice of …
