COMPUTER SIMULATION OF THE PROPAGATION AND INTERACTION OF SOLITON SEQUENCES IN NONLINEAR OPTICAL FIBERS

Sonja Zentner - Ľubomír Šumichrast

   The results of the simulation of optical soliton propagation in nonlinear dispersive optical fibers with or without losses are presented. The propagation equation was modeled using the finite-differences-method. The propagation of fundamental soliton, higher order soliton and the sequence of up to five adjacent solitons was observed and analyzed for various initial conditions

Keywords: soliton propagation, optical fibers
