Abstract

The generalized nonlinear Schrödinger model with distributed dispersion, nonlinearity, and gain or loss is considered and the explicit, analytical solutions describing the dynamics of bright solitons on a continuous-wave background are obtained in quadratures. Then, the generation, compression, and propagation of pulse trains are discussed in detail. The numerical results show that solitons can be compressed by choosing the appropriate control fiber system, and pulse trains generated by modulation instability can propagate undistorsted along fibers with distributed parameters by controlling appropriately the energy of each pulse in the pulse train.
