Abstract

We numerically and experimentally studied the shape of the dissipative dispersion-managed solitons (DM-solitons) stably propagating over the lossy DM fiber-optic systems with lumped amplification. We found that, contrary to the lossless case, the chirp-free points of the dissipative DM-solitons are not located in the middle of the fiber spans in the dispersion map. This constitutes a qualitative difference between the dissipative DM-solitons of the lossy systems and the conservative ones of the lossless systems. The applied numerical method was verified both experimentally and by numerically solving nonlinear Schrodinger equation.
