Abstract
Optical solitons are well known and understood in optical fibers with constant dispersion. This paper examines the behavior of soli-tons (or soliton-like pulses) in a system with periodically oscillating dispersion The interesting situation is where the global dispersion is low but the local dispersion is large. It is found by numerical investigation and analysis that a new type of soli ton pulse is obtained with enhance energy threshold and breathing pulse shape.
