Abstract
We derive an analytical expression for the root mean square (rms) char
acteristics (temporal, spectra and chirp) for an arbitrary pulse shape
propagating in a nonlinear dispersive and lossy fiber under the assum
ption of long dispersion length. The average soliton distance is shown
to correspond to the distance where the rms chirp is zero.
