Abstract
We propose the system of coupled Hirota-Maxwell-Bloch equations which gover ns the propagation of optical pulses in an erbium doped nonlinear fibre wit h higher order dispersion, self-steepening and self induced transparency (S IT) effects. The Lax pair is explicitly constructed and the soliton solutio n is obtained using the Darboux-Backlund transformations. Hence, the system is found to admit soliton type lossless wave propagation.
