【 摘 要 】

The increased demand for high bandwidth communication channels has raisedsignificant interest in overcoming the data rate limitations of fibercommunication systems. In this thesis a solution is proposed: controlled solitonpropagation. This solution requires the use of new technology in the form oftunable dispersion fibers that can be tuned quickly and continuously. Assumingsuch a fiber can be created, control is applied so as to produce Gaussian pulsesthat overcome current fiber limitations by balancing dispersion and nonlinearity.The pulses will experience no dispersion on average and thus allow ultra-shortpulse widths to be propagated. Simulated results suggest that this solution maysucceed in propagating ultra-short pulses where current propagation techniquesfail.
