dispersionmanaged
Dispersion managed solitons are a type of optical soliton that propagate in optical fibers with periodically varying dispersion. In standard optical fibers, chromatic dispersion causes the different frequency components of a light pulse to travel at different speeds, leading to pulse broadening. Dispersion management is a technique used to mitigate this effect.
In dispersion management, alternating sections of fiber with positive and negative dispersion are used. While each
Dispersion managed solitons are robust against perturbations and can carry information at high bit rates. They
