摘要
In this paper, the decay of first- and second-order ultra short pulses of the order of 50 fs due to self-steepening (SS) effect has been numerically investigated for a 40 Gb/s optical soliton system including the impact of third-order dispersion (TOD). It has been observed that the prechirp (both positive and negative) in the pulse can counteract the SS effect and improve compensation performance for the distortions The critical positive prechirp value is found to be 1.4 and the negative prechirp is 1.2, beyond which the soliton pulse is unstable.
