Abstract :
In this letter, an experimental investigation of a p.c.m. communication system using soiltons as signal carriers is reported. The soliton is a pulse that propagates along a nonlinear dispersive line with constant velocity and without distortion. It is shown that by designing the system appropriately, it is possible to achieve a better performance as far as bit error rate is concerned than the corresponding system with linear dispersive channel.
