Study On A New Split-step Fourier Algorithm For Optical Fiber Transmission Systems Simulations

Recently we presented a new Split-Step Fourier algorithm to the simulation of optical-fiber transmission systems. To check it, we show here its efficiency to model a two first-order soliton collision, which is a situation of practical interest because of its sensitivity to numerical errors. © 2005 IEEE.100102Rieznik, A.A., Meirelles, T.T., Callegari, F.A., Fragnito, H.L., Uncertainty principle and the optimization of optical-fiber communications systems simulations Optics Express, , to be published inSinkin, O.V., Holzlöhner, R., Zweck, J., Menyuk, C., Optimization of the Split-Step Fourier Method in Modeling Optical-Fiber Communications Systems (2003) IEEE J. of Lightwave Technol, 21, pp. 61-68Agrawal, G.P., (1995) Nonlinear Fiber Optics, , London, U.K. AcademicMerzbacher, E., (1970) Quantum Mechanics, , Wiley, New Yor
