Va. Aleshkevich et al., STOCHASTISATION OF OPTICAL SOLITONS BY TH E SPONTANEOUS LUMINESCENCE NOISE IN ACTIVE OPTICAL FIBERS, Kvantovaa elektronika, 23(10), 1996, pp. 902-904
A theoretical investigation is reported of coherent amplification of s
olitons in active optical fibres in the presence of the spontaneous lu
minescence noise. An analysis is made of fluctuations of the soliton p
arameters and limits on the data transmission rate (bit rate) are iden
tified.
