Abstract
A complete model of the hybrid soliton pulse source based on a time-domain solution of the coupled-mode equations is described. The model predicts the novel wavelength self-tuning mechanism and large stability range seen with this source. Results show the output waveform, optical spectrum, and instantaneous frequency, providing accurate source characteristics for use in transmission simulations.<>
