Abstract
The pulse broadening due to dispersion in optical fiber is studied by solving the nonlinear Schrödinger equation through the Fourier transform method. The expression of pulse width in terms of its root-mean-square and the pulse broadening factor of the Gauss-chirped pulse are given. Meanwhile, the influence of the propagating optical fiber distance on the pulse broadening is given. The influence of the chirped factor on the pulse broadening and the optical fiber dispersion on pulses with different widths are analyzed and discussed.
