Study on soliton phase characteristics in 100 Gbps single‐channel telecommunication system

Summary Here, we demonstrate the peculiar particle nature of soliton pulses with relative to phase, where the adjacent soliton pulses in a sequence attract and repel each other periodically for in‐phase and out‐of‐phase arrangement, respectively. This effect of soliton's interaction and repulsion is studied analytically by using perturbation theory approach. The study of soliton pair characteristics are mainly noted for different relative spacing ( q o ) between them and for different phase of launched soliton pulses. Following the analytical studies, we analyzed the effect in a 100 Gbps, single channel and uncompensated telecommunication system for different phased soliton sequences. Such that, the performance of the telecommunication system is characterized in terms of Q‐factor (Q) and bit‐error rate to realize the influence of phase on soliton pulses. The system was studied for 1 collision length ( L D ) of 123.36 km. It is seen that, for 100 Gbps system implemented with standard single mode telecom fiber, with soliton spaced at q o  = 5.28, the in‐phase pulses interacted at 61.68 km, which has resulted in Q  = 0 ( bit‐error rate  = 1). It is realized that for small‐phase introduction on soliton pulses, the system yielded fair Q demonstrating the non‐interaction at the I p as the pulses deviate with respect to increasing phase values. But, it is also shown that large phase between pulses introduces more deviation, which results in overlapping of deviated pulses with adjacent pulses in sequence resulting in degradation of high bitrate system performance.
