Abstract
We investigate interactions between pulses in dispersion-managed multichann el wavelength-division-multiplexed soliton systems, using an improved varia tional approximation. The frequency shifts are found to be smallest for mod erate, i.e., relatively short-scale, dispersion management. The position sh ifts increase monotonically with map strength.
