Abstract

Due to the inherently nonlinear nature of optical fibres, the increased demand for transmission capacity means that fibre optic communication systems will reach a limit, known as the Linear Capacity Limit [1,2]. A radically new solution has received significant attention in the past few years [1,3,4], which is based on Nonlinear Fourier Transform (NFT) [5]. Under NFT a signal q(t) in time domain transforms into a continuous, qc(λ), and a discrete, qd(λk), complex spectral part, with continuous and discrete eigenvalues λ, and λk, respectively [4]. Considering only multisolitons (a class of optical signals that have discrete NFT eigenvalues), it is well-known that 1) complex eigenvalues λk are invariant, and 2) the spectral part propagates as: qdkz = |qd k(0)| ej φ (z); φ (Z) = qd k(0) - 4 λ2 kz.
