Timing Jitter for Dispersion-Managed Solitons
in Optical Fibers
The collision induced frequency and timing jitter for a
wavelength-division-multiplexed soliton system with strong
dispersion-management is computed in realistic systems
when damping and amplification following the loss profile are
included. For small-moderate frequence separation the residual
frequency shift is shown to be small. When the frequency separation
between the channels is large, Laplace's method shows that the
frequency shift can be significant. Moreover the Poisson sum
formula can be used to globally analyze the frequency and timing
shifts. A statistical analysis is carried out for the frequency
and timing jitter. The analytical results are supported by
numerical simulations.
