Abstract
We have investigated the stabilizing effect of nonlinear gains on soli ton transmission, making use of a modified nonlinear Schrodinger equat ion representing a system with nonlinear gain, and solving the equatio n numerically using the Fourier series analysis technique. We have fou nd that in the presence of second- and fourth-order nonlinearities, a relatively high stability can be achieved in soliton transmission. (C) 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
