Abstract
We revisit the problem of influence of a chirp on production of solito ns by an initial pulse, considering the rectangular pulse shape and a piecewise-constant chirp, which form of the pulse is very easy to anal yze. We show that there is a critical value of the chirp, beyond which individual solitons are split. This critical value is nearly constant .
