We studied the formation of bi-soliton pairs in Kerr-type stretched pulse fiber ring laser (SPFRL). By solving the modified Ginzburg-Landau (GL) equaition, which models the SPFRL, we show that anti-phase bi-soliton can be generated robustly if a low level Gaussian pulse is injected into the ring laser in the initial set-up stage. With the help of properly selected high order nonlinear gain coefficient, the observation of anti-phase bi-soliton pairs is expected to become feasible in experiments.
