Abstract

The formation conditions and the effective gain of frequency-modulated soliton wave packets in a non-uniform along the length of active optical fibers were investigated. For packets modulated wave propagating in the nonlinear dependence of the fibers with the dispersion of the fiber length, the power of the generated pulses can be considerably increased in comparison with the homogeneous fibers. Due to the constant growth of the spectral width of the generated pulse sequence can no longer return to the state of the modulated continuous wave. As a result, the pulse duration with some fluctuations steadily declining. The amplitude and period of these oscillations are also reduced.
