In this letter we report a new type of multi-soliton solutions for the modified Korteweg–de Vries (mKdV) equation. These solutions contain τ functions of the trigonometric solitons and classical solitons simultaneously. A new bilinear form of the mKdV equation is introduced to derive these solutions. The obtained solutions display as solitons living on a periodic background, which are analyzed and illustrated.
