Abstract :
It is shown that bandwidth management in dispersion-alternating fibres allows noise accumulation in spaces to be suppressed and signal pulses, bandwidth-managed solitons (BMS), to be stably propagated over ultra-long distances. Both the amplitude and timing jitter of the signal pulses are greatly reduced by using BMS while the transmission distance is dramatically increased
