NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF COLLISION BEHAVIORS OF OPTICAL SOLITONS IN A KERR LAW MEDIA

Optical solitons are well thought-out as natural bits for telecommunications as they have the inclination to preserve their shape over transoceanic distances In order to achieve stability, there should be a balance between the group velocity dispersion (GVD) which causes pulse broadening and the self phase modulation (SPM) which causes spectrum broadening. The time interval TB between two adjacent bits or pulses determines the bit rate of a communication system as B =1/TB. It is thus imperative to study how close two solitons can come without affecting each other. In this paper soliton collision in nonlinear optical fibers are investigated.
