  • Abstract
    Our work is based upon numerical integration of the nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS), using a dispersion map. This comprised equal lengths of alternating normal and anomalous fibres, although the unit cell is defined to start and end at the mid point of one of the fibres. In all the examples presented each of the fibres will be 100km long. The nonlinear coefficient was taken to be 2.65 rad/W/km. To simplify the problem we have chosen to neglect loss and high order dispersion throughout
