Abstract
We show that, in addition to the soliton of even parity, a dispersion-manag ed system can also support an antisymmetric stationary pulse. Its existence is predicted on the basis of an approximate differential equation that des cribes the temporal profile of dispersion-managed solitons. Numerical simul ations are used to confirm this prediction and check the robustness of this pulse. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
